Hopper by night |
| Description: |
A group of us had gone to Cortland the night before the M`rathon Maple Festival to get some night shots of the NYSW train, which was tied up at the station to be ready for the mornings action. We grabbed a shot of this CNW homper too. |

Hopper by day |
| Description: |
This CNW covered hopper was spotted at a feed mill in Cgrtland the day of the Marathon Maple Festival. We had shot it the night before, and I could not resist the chance to get it in daylight as well. |

Apparently the big yellow bird is a fan of the big blue railroad, at least so it says on the side of this covered hopper leaving Allentown on ALEN. |

Welcome Home!! |
| Description: |
It was still possible to find Erie Lackawanna equipment knocking around the Conrail system, but a real treat to find it on the EL. Most of the cars still in service by this time were the 1972 Bethlehem 77 ton hoppers, so this 100 ton grain hopper at the Binghamton Agway was a nice surprise. |

Green survivor |
| Description: |
This ex MKT two bay hopper was westbound on 12T. Looks good if a little faded almost twenty years after the Katy disappeared into UP. The HLMX initials show as belonging to Helm Financial, Wells Fargo Rail, or First Union Rail, so could be any of those. |

Getting harder to find |
| Description: |
An ATSF two bay hopper rolls under the bridge as it heads south on a BNSF train on the Ft Scott Sub. Rolling stock often takes a lot longer to get painted than locomotives, but this car is still in full ATSF markings almost 20 years after the merger. These are getting hard to find at this late date. |

Unmistakeable |
| Description: |
The heritage of this car is evident, even with new reporting marks. In the upper left corner, where the CR herald once was, is now a paint out, something I find supremely ironic on CR equipment. The road name was once lettered across the cars broad side. The real giveaway, though, is the color. The jade green can only mean one of two things: Penn Central, or if its old enough, NYC. This is a real survivor. |

Pride of Saskatchewan |
| Description: |
Some Canadian provinces funded grain hoppers in the days when car supply was a problem in the prairies, and CN and CP could not guarantee car supply to ship out the crops. As the problem resolved, the railroads wound up owning most of the cars, which were billboards for their original owners, such as this car, now a CP car, on the KCS at Watts. |

Belle |
| Description: |
When these cars were new, they often ran in solid trains, along with KCS power in the then new retro Belle scheme. It made for an impressive looking train. Ten years on, the new cars arent so new anymore, and run randomly. This one is in a southbound grain train at Watts. It's a little bit dusty, but looks pretty good for ten years on the road. |

CMO |
| Description: |
Some of the major roads have a number of initials that have accumulated over the years as they have made acquisitions and merged other roads. Some of these are still in use, having never been out of circulation; some have been retired, either by design, or have just faded away as their original owners equipment was retired, and been brought back. CMO us one of those road names still in action belongs to the Chicago, Minneapolis, St Paul & Omaha, which came to the UP via the Northwestern, who merged them in 1960. Here it is on a two bay hopper, almost sixty years after the original road was merged. |

Or half of one. This SP car has either defected to the Southern, or someone painted out half the road name. Either way, this was one of a number of cars in this train still in predecessor road reporting marks. The diesel fleet may be completely repainted, but the rolling stock likely never will. |

| Title: |
Midwestern classics |
| Description: |
Back in the 70s, the Klemme Coop, in north central Iowa, invested in a fleet of covered hoppers. This assured them of a steady supply of cars, which gave them some predictability in that era when things were rotten and the granger roads werent doing well. They were on grain trains everywhere. The SOO car is one of the famous "wheat stalk" cars, which were also seen nationwide. These two have now found their way into the Interstate Commodities fleet, granting them several more years of useful service. We see them here on a CSX train headed toward Chattanooga. |
