This is nice work did you paint that yourself? I am a steel mill modeler and you seem to have all the best photos of newely painted bottle cars. Where in Warren Ohio do all of these cars get painted Thanks $$C
Shelby, There is a small yard for a steel mill right through my back yard. The steel mill is down the street further. I'm think these are rebuilt further through the woods behind me in a large building. I'm fairly sure this building was a division of Youngstown Steel Door called Youngstown Steel Car. It would actually be in Niles, Ohio. There are 2 or 3 cars a month I see. This car (above) was headed for Pittsburgh. This one here is headed for Chicago: This one was right next to it, kind of like a before and after: I only have photos of the ones I happen to catch at the yard waiting to be shipped out.
