CN Woodchip Cars

My CN operational diorama that I was working on in the late 1980's has an Athearn geep shoving a cut of woodchip cars I kitbashed from Front Range boxcars. The caboose was scratch-built by Al Howlett back then. I believe I purchased it off Bob Hannah. Wish I kept it to compare to the new ones coming out soon.
I took this photo back in 1989 of a 12' diorama I operated on. I recently found the slide again and scanned...George Dutka
