I have a batch of three old Stewart brand Reading 2-bay hoppers - HTs class with speed lettering and without the red "Anthracite" herald. Each has a "BLT" date of 5-44 on the lower right side, but on the lower left each shows a "STN" number of 4-63.
Does the fact that they have the speed lettering, no red herald, and the STN number mean they were modified or re-painted in 1963?
