The posting notes that many railroads had near identical clones of the GLa.
Presumably CN was one of them. Given Rapido’s history, I would expect the
model to be tweaked to match.

The newsletter shows a CN hopper? Rapido has always done a good job of
prototypically accurate models. It’s not flagged as ‘fantasy’, so I would
expect it’s an accurate model based on the same plan?

I have not seen any evidence of O&W hoppers in Canada. Many others though.
Locomotive coal for Ontario and Montreal was imported from mines in Ohio and
other eastern U.S. mining areas using a wide variety of US hoppers including
PRR, N&W, L&N, C&O.
