In HO, I have the Athearn Special Edition set #2314, which includes cars number 17302, 61417 and 17786.  I also have 61486 by Roundhouse (#5506)  and 60682 by either Roundhouse or TMI, plus another 61417 McKean model that Third Rail Graphics did a custom run on about 12 years ago.  The McKean/TRG car gives you a choice of four different door types, one of which is plug door, although that may be/have been a standard feature in McKean kits.

According to Burlington Bulletin #7 page 20, eight box cars received the gold paint treatment and black & white photos of four of them – 17302, 17786, 60682 and 61417 – are shown. Details of the other four have not apparently surfaced.
