N&W Covered Hopper

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Christopher,

Standard N&W paint and stenciling practice for the HC-1, would be grey paint 
with black stenciling.  I am not aware of any N&W covered hopper, in the 
steam era, which would have been painted black with white stenciling.

The model manufacturers don't always get things correct! <VBG>
