Ron, The gray hopper is really interesting. I have several of these (Overland N&W brass models both wood and rebuilt with steel sides). I had no idea they survived to be painted in “covered hopper” gray. Mine will remain black and in coal service, but this is still interesting. On a 1960s layout, one of these in gray would be a real eye-catcher. Jerry
