How about MK for Muskogee. I have photo’s of KOG hoppers with ‘CHGO’, but I don’t know what railroad.

Yes, Omaha did have a scale, but I don’t know if the Car Dept used it to change the car data…

I’ll add MK and CHGO. Am also seeing lots of cars with NEW on them that have obviously been in service for a while. I’ll have to find a ORER from the late 1970’s and see what the light weight rule was for re weighting cars within so many years. Back in the 1950’s it was every five years

Looking too at the restenciling I see SBD and a few other RRs stenciled on modern Mop cars so will add a couple of these to the list too.
