Thanks John, I sorta remember something to that affect now that you mention it. And, yes I too have shared the same thoughts about eventually putting the EBT lettering on them. Boy, would that stir up more controversy.....maybe 
Never having been to the EBT
and having only seen two of the EBT hoppers minus their sides and ends at the Midwest Central a number of years ago, I was excited to say the least when at last I got to get up close and personal with the JBWX cars in Chama in 2000 (?). Like most all of the narrow gauge cars I have a fondness for them.
By the way, did you ever consider registering the JBWX marks?
