@Apples55 posted:Living in NE Pennsylvania, PP&L has been my power Company for over 25 years - very reliable IMHO. I picked two sets of their die-cast hoppers the other day from Grzyboski’s. I’ll try and post some picks tomorrow.
Ha, that's exactly who I was looking at getting them from. The stock pics look pretty good, but I;d still be curious. I have the four cars with the 'Ready-Kilowatt' logo, (which is prototypical BTW), and I'd love to add these 6 to it. I run real coal (rice coal from Tractor Supply), which makes for an awesome electric-powered coal drag under wire. The coal tends to make a mess, but that's part of doing business on my system.
