I took this on 3-7-04 at Santa Fe Jct. Kansas City, Kansas. Sure wish someone would make a model of this car. I don't know if anyone posted a photo of it or not, so I'm posting mine.

Painted very light beige, orange "VeraSun Energy" lettering. Used for distiller grain loading, a byproduct of making ethanol.

I wouldn't think that one would be too hard to do yourself. Really the decal is the only thing... Try designing it on the computer yourself and get one of those inkjet decal kits. You might have to double up the decal because the orange will be light, but it should work. Either that, or forward the shot to any company that already makes that style car.

On the data, it don't say how long the cars are. Oh by the way, I do make decals.
