Yeah, this was quite an interesting piece. And it has all kinds of strange lettering and numbering. The fact that the Southern is gone, but the old NS remains is even stranger!

I noticed the misspelled "Lessor".

Original NS Hopper in '04

Check out what I found a few months ago delivering soy beans to Cargill in Gainesville, GA. I mentioned this before, but I just got around to posting pictures of it. Here is an Ex Southern, and Ex Norfolk Southern before that. That being the original NS. Notice the old red NS on the right side. Also, notice how the NS outlasted the Southern that had been painted in the middle of the car. And finally check out the crazy numbering on the left hand side!
