As a devotee of the SP, I grew up near their line.  One car that became my favorite is the 2 bay cement covered hoppers.  The variety of prototypes, lettering and weathering on these cars has always fascinated me.  Here is a Bowser ACF 2 bay showing many years of service.

Another ACF 2 bay covered hopper with the later lettering scheme showing more hard usage.

Yet another ACF covered hopper; these cars were moved in long blocks between loading and unloading points, so a lot are needed to give the right effect.
