The SP had 40 or so of these side dumps in 5 and 7 door configurations. Only one #339 remains unaltered at Laws. Midwest central RR and Roaring camp bought some and turned them into excursion cars I believe. I haven't closely studied these cars, but I can't imagine they were designed any worse than the DRGW 700-899 drop bottoms.
