Here's another "used to be" topic. At one time, Eastman Kodak had a small fleet of captive cars for in-plant service. In the early 1960's, some of these cars were stored surplus on the track just inside Kodak from the B&O - I don't know what Kodak's name or number for that track was. They had a flat, some boxcars, and some 2-pocket hoppers. I can't remember which car(s) it was, but I recall seeing "NYO&W" cast into the sideframe of the trucks on at least one car, I THINK it was a hopper. No hopper pics, I'm sorry to say.
Here's a couple boxcar pics, though. Note the outside-braced cars are end-door cars as evidenced by the hinges at the corner. I have no idea of the ancestry of these cars. Also note the huge coal piles - if they were not there, you would see Ridge Road - the view is roughly northwest.
