Probably not needed... if this link shows the old Revell model:
A couple of us modelers are looking for a model to use as a starting point to build a stand-in model of this 1977 Thrall gondola:
That's the same body die, probably produced for Con-Cor by Heljan.
I DO notice the prototype C&O photo shows FOURTEEN ribs. Looking at the GB&W car it appears to have higher sides. Also, you'd need to make the Revell straight across the bottom and extend the rins a bit, but that wouldn't be too hard.
I don't have a picture or a link, but have you looked at the MDC "railgon" ?
