Jim, I agree on the N&W shields and perhaps some of the early C&O cars,
some even with a drednaught pattern (now that would make a neat hopper end to
cast!), however, on the C&O cars I have seen the arched heap shields were an
add on, on top of the bulb angle with three vertical evenly spaced ribs, will
see if I can find the car series numbers.
