My helium tank cars, a vinegar tank car, several of the steel
side reefers and a few of the 40' double deck stock cars are still active. The rest have gone to the shelf.

Gang,
I've been slowly going through a backlog of print magazines from this year (don't ask!) and I see that model railroad feature stories still, well, feature A1G rolling stock.? Although they've long been surpassed by later releases, I think this is fascinating.?
The latest example I note is in the September/October 2018 issue of N Scale Magazine.? The article "Still Workin' on the Railroad" has photos which include the A1G Monon composite gondola (Catalog 2233).? And it's been some fifty years since it was first available!
My A1G cars have largely been retired from regular service, but how about yours?
