After Jim pointed out that the kits come with two different set of doors, I found this in the local hobby shop:
And yes it does have two seperate types of doors
It has both wine doors and enterprise mechanism doors. Am I correct to assume the enterprise doors are more of an automatic system than the wine doors or are they just different designs doing the same thing?
I also noticed that they are both 50 Ton war emergency hoppers, the Southern is the rebuilt with steel sides and the ex-AT&SF car is the original composite car. No matter, I'm planning on repainting them and sending them to MOW service as ballast and clean-up cars.
