hey nice collect of hoppers. especially that dole joint in the background. where are the reporting marks on that grey one or is it a work in progress?

thanks, i made the dole one into a grey hopper, i didnt think it was a real car but mayb it is, they all came from a 03 shoprite trainset and yea they r still in progress, i did get some decals but havnt been sure of what road 2 stamp them as, my lhs didnt have the reflector decals either so i have looked around a bet and MLLX hoppers dont seem 2 have any reflectors of them so i might mark these as those but they r owned by a mill and im not sure where its located some im just taking my time and getting the facts before i do something dumb

cole, i also noticed that many of ur hoppers dont seem to have the yellow reflectors either ( i kno theres a term for those yellow reflectors i just cant think of it con-something?) do the protypes of those cars not have these reflectors either or were u also having trouble finding them?
