PS-2 Covered hoppers

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Hi Listers,

    Now that we are all informed about the limestone boxcars here is my next question: NW PS-2 covered hoppers.  I searched the N&W Color Guide and didn't find any 2003 cuft. PS-2's.  My 1983 ORER lists the following numbers under NW: 71200-71249 (24), 71300-71349 (32), and 71426-71475 (42).  All are 2003 cuft. cars and have in the description column "Hatchway Roof".  Are these cars PS-2's?  Others in the number series 181950-182049 (6), 181980-182026 (2) and 291500-291599 (40) list these groups of cars having an 8 Hatch roof.  Again I'm looking for photos.  

    Thanks again,

    John Hecker
