MP 643747 - This black gondola is
showing its age some eighteen years later; 4/2/96. As the story goes,
the NdeM owed the Mopac several thousand dollars in car hire and offered
to build these gondolas to offset payment (which incidentally would
have been cheaper than buying gons by US builders). Using black and
white photos of MP's gons, the builders had no idea what color to
use, so these cars were painted all-over black with white grabs |
