Pete-

That's not a Walters car. It has been produced by Accurail and just
released in January 2011. It may fit into the Open Hopper class 5 group 2
of the Erie Lackawanna and came from the Erie, but I can't verify this. As
to its authenticity, I can only find the attached picture which has a very
different bottom drop configuration.
