Rio Grande Coal Hopper Repaint

Unread postby thecanadianrail » Sat Feb 01, 2014 10:30 pm

Was wondering if anyone was interested in repainting one of greatnortherners 3 bay coal hoppers from his classic hopper pack from T&D. Rio Grande used 4 bay coal hoppers but at this point in time we do not have one available yet so a 3 bay will be a good placeholder. (possibly even some repaints with a UP patch on them) Slight weathering and fading would be appreciated if anyone wants to tackle this repaint, thanks!

Here are some quick and simple reskins. The three variations are based on pictures posted on RailPhotos.com. What do you think?

I don't like photo reskins so that's why I asked for these, plus these are more than just 1 number.
