SCL freight cars in HO scale

greenspun.com : LUSENET : ACL and SAL Railroads Historical Society : One Thread

Can anyone tell me if the recent Walthers woodchip car(item 932-4058) lettered as SCL 180039 is an accurate representation of an SCL prototype? Also, did the SCL actually own any combination-door FMC boxcars like the kit that Roundhouse offers, or did they all have waffles like the one on page 95 of Doug Nuckles' SCL book?

The Walters car is a end dump car the cars the SCL had were rotary dump cars.The Walters car is close but not accurate.
