Ken as you have, and can see, Model die casting produced that car in many B&O numbers and colors. A very nice group of cars of one railroad. Three of the 15 aren't MDC. The Sentinel cars are Train-Miniature.

There's a name for that style of hopper that tapers out on the sides, just below the top. I can't remember what it is, but I like the cars. Those're real lookers. If someone can refresh my memory, please do.

As I recall a guy named William Mosteller/Great Decals; made a decal set for those B&O 4 bay hoppers. The set had 12 different numbers along with numbers and reporting marks for the ends. The set even has end numbers for the 2 or 3 road numbers that Athearn offered.
That project is on the "one of these days" list here at my house.
