Title:  IC 798089 covered hopper
Description:  IC 798089 covered hopper sporting balanced dot IC logo on her side and more than adequate weathering for the job trying to hide behind BNSF 917203 welded rail-flat (part of the big double-tracking effort for this heavily used north-south mainline through Eastern Washington - which would normally be much busier if oil prices were higher - although oddly enough, relatively quiet compared to normal without the expected coal traffic, either.
