This was the only picture I could find of it. Where I live, I see many of them like in the picture and with a red stripe instead. Thanks!

I've seen some hoppers like this up on the DLS. Do a search for hoppers and see what comes up.

HCLX help?

I'm not at my Trainz PC at the moment.

Also Power and Light too might be a good filter as well.

That's where I must've seen the hoppers - RRMods!

Anyway you need a photo-editing program such as Gimp (Free), Paintshop Pro (inexpensive), or Photoshop (Expensive) to edit the images.

Once you get the hang of the process, it's a lot of fun 'kit bashing' rolling stock, locomotives and buildings for what you want.

One of the tell-tale signs showing that you're having fun is when you have 6 different railroads just to have an excuse for reskinning hundreds of things.
