Dave:
 
Jim Nichols' book has a 385xxx picture in his "Color" book; won't answer  
all your questions, but probably wears the same paint scheme as the 386xxx  
did.

Was wondering if any pictures exist on ex-Wabash 40' AAR boxcars in  N&W 
service? These cars were 40' 1937 AAR's with 5/5 Dreadnaught  ends, the number 
series was #86000 to 86874 which would make them  N&W #386xxx's. I am 
wanting to convert a couple of Athearn 40'  boxcars of these in N&W service, so 
I'd like to know the assigned  boxcar class, when retired, and possibly what 
paint schemes they wore.  Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks,
Dave  Grigsby
