To Dave or anyone else that might be able to answer:

What happened to all the former Central of Georgia covered hoppers (I believe they were PS-2's, but not sure) that were on the Columbus & Greenville a few years ago? Has there been any interest or effort to save at least a couple of these for preservation?

And part them from the first C of G diesel by removing them? Hard ethical decision.

Will pass your inquiry along to the C of G RHS for disposition. Do you want one in Michigan?

Have heard from those in the know who believe they are still in service there. So far as I know none are in danger.

There are some nice C of G woodchip cars approaching the scrap line in Albany GA.

What I think is the last C of G riveted tank car was cut up recently while we were working to get permission to move it to the museum. I did save some pieces though.

No, just going through some old photos yesterday that I took during one of my first railfan trips to the south, and wondered if they were still around. Didn't realize the first C of G diesel was there, too. Seems that at least one deserves preservation though......
