I have [finally] gotten to posting a new page on the A1G website discussing the Ore Cars and whether the first four releases (DM&IR aka Missabe, Soo Line, Great Northern and LS&I) should be counted as A1G cars.
The net of it is that I've decided not to decide. How's that for a compromise?
One of these days I'll get to fixing the pages so that links load more directly, in the meantime I've put a link on the A1G main page.
We already have a variation-- the two 2453 Great Northerns I have in my accumulation are of distinctly different brown body colors.
Cheers,
George
