Stephen,
These were put into N&W class G-29. I would also very much like to see a picture in N&W paint. They could have gone into MoW.

In July of 1944, the Nickel Plate received its first order of 50 of the “Greenville” gondolas from Greenville, under Office Order O.O. 419. These were assigned road numbers Series 66000-66049. Cars came with Dreadnaught ends, Universal Lever Hand Brake, a 1-3/8” x 5-5/8” plank, hardwood floor, Wine door locks and 28 interior folding stake pockets. I was wondering if an of these made it to the N&W paint scheme . I cannot find any photos. I want to model this in N&W as I have a brass model I would like to paint.
