I just passed my YOH&P Hood reefer on to my 7 year old son.  It'll be his first 
wood kit.  I found the lettering and 
Hood logo... wanting.  And less a week later, I managed to obtain an SHS/Port 
Lines Hood 40' car; it's graphics are 
dramatically better, although it will require some substantial changes to 
better represent the General American or MDT 
built cars that Hood leased.  Can anyone comment specifically to the Kinsman 
and/or Hoquat versions?

Bill, would it be possible for you to post an image of these trucks to the 
group page, as they are not pictured on the 
YOH&P website.  That would be much appreciated,
