Can anyone provide a quick assessment on how accurate the Walthers HO Quad
hoppers are for CB&Q sugar beet service cars?

A picture of the model at:
http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/932-49481

does look similar to CB&Q 161319 at:
http://rr-fallenflags.org/cbq/cbq161319ajs.jpg

but I don't have measurements or indications from the photo that the car was
used in sugar beet service.

Also, in what general time frame were these cars used, and would you see
them in large blocks or mixed with other types of sugar beet cars?

I'm sure some of my questions could be answered by the sugar beet issue of
the Burlington Bulletin --- anyone know where I could buy a copy?

Thanks!
