This hopper started out with factory Erie Lackawanna paint. Car was then painted conrail brown and was then wet sanded to simulate the conrail paint washing away. Car then had patches added for its current owner,NRLX. It was then decaled and weathered.
Notice the silver trucks, plated windows, and old CR logo fading through (Look just below the left crossing light). Athearn makes this exact caboose in HO scale as part of their Ready To Roll line.
