Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: Even though it was the first of October, it was a steamy morning. I checked out the SOR (former CN) yard while in the area and there is the pair of former CN switchers, 1359 and 1367 with 3 scale test cars! Only time I have seen three together. Unfortunately, the only one I noted was the former cylindrical hopper, a 34′ ore car, #52285, which was converted to a scale car back in 1993. My eyes were just not sharp enough to note the others. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Thanks. No, only about a half dozen were made to scale cars. No idea on the rest. Hopefully someone on RP will take the time to inform us.
