He had actually done one or two nice tide cars like the Tyco Catalog showed them to be. Sold them on ebay...

What is STC and TPGX? And why? Great info, Busss.
How did he accomplish those complicated graphics?
When did Tyco catalog this, right before the Big Good Bye?

Hey Busss, STC is Tony L's reporting marks. Are you sure Tony C painted that hopper?
And Chops, even though TPGX is a real reporting mark, I imagine Busss made it up to stand for Tide Proctor & Gamble. The X, of course, indicating non-railroad ownership. Am I right, Busss?
