What about behind an ES44?
And I also have many of the cars pictured above. But I would think that many of the real ones are getting a little long in the tooth out there on the rails.
PS...the ACF hopper by des plains is one I wish they would re run with some other road names, I am tired of having to hunt for kits that are 20 years old (or more) to find some Midwest road names.

Ah. Now you're moving the goal posts.

Way back when in another thread I mentioned some of these cars are getting long in the tooth for contemporary motive power, but they are the only option in S at present. I'm certainly not going to run a bunch of 40' steel or wood side boxcars and billboard reefers behind my SD70's and ES44...

I agree, I'd like to see more road names for the ACF hoppers (CB&Q for one...,) as well as the other cars already produced.
