Well Kenny, now is your chance to do some shots with that camera you always carry with you. Just explain how that hopper is moving all around the country. If we can get boB to do a couple of shots, maybe some Western guys can keep the ball rolling. After awhile it can move back for a repeat on Roy's layout. I'm sure I can also find a new way of showing it.

I actually think that's the first time a "special" car that didn't follow the prototype has ever been on my layout for any length of time. That's why I've sold off most of them.

BTW, hopefully this will result in Fraley and Co. selling off the rest of the stock. And by the way Bill--where is the Spiral Hill hopper on your layout?

Very nice photos. I also have the honor of owning a Spiral Hill Hopper. Mine even has the even rarer "graffiti" of Franks personal autograph. Among my prized possessions.
