Yes otto you are correct some of these cars seaid "SOLID GOLD" these were 50' nonrefergerated plug door cars owned by FGE and they could be seen in two diffrent colors which were yellow cars with black lettering or they could also be seen in an Orange Color with Black lettering.
FGE also owned or had a fleet of 57' Reefers which seaid "SOLID COLD" and with "REAL COLD" on them these cars were ofton a cream color with Black or blue lettering.
