John: 71426-71475 and 291500-291599 were built by Greenville. All the
others you listed were built by P.S., so they could be PS-2's. There is
a picture of 291582 on page 80 of the Color Guide and a picture of 71475
on page 73. Both are Greenville cars, but my text makes reference to the
P.S. cars. Yanosey limited me on the number of pictures I could use, so
not every class was illustrated. I tried to indicate which cars were
similar to the ones that were pictured. Jim Nichols
