Eastern Railroad Discussion > Central of Georgia black and silver boxcarsDate: 04/04/13 21:48 Central of Georgia black and silver boxcars Author: brc600 Any left or preserved?

The cars are undoubtedly long past use in revenue service, as the Southern took over about 50 years ago. Might be an interesting paint scheme to replicate somewhere, though.

Gonut Date: 04/05/13 12:38 Re: Central of Georgia black and silver boxcars Author: ctillnc In retrospect it should have said "IC, Frisco, SAL - anybody but Southern" on the other side.
Date: 04/05/13 14:55 Re: Central of Georgia black and silver boxcars Author: CShaveRR Thank you, Ray. Don't know why I thought those were blue. I do remember the cars, but I think I saw only one of them as recently as the 1970s.

My paycheck at the bottom says Central of Georgia and Norfolk Southern at the top.
