Continuing research took me to the Convair graveyard..

Most of these are 440s, and 580s..

This company keeps a handful of the old birds earning their keep hauling freight..

Reminds me of an 'aircraft graveyard' I sometimes go past when visiting my grandparents. They've got four DC-4s, a Gnat, some cessnas and a whole load of jet engines.
