MWCX 461328
Title:  MWCX 461328
Description:  Ex-Milwaukee Road MWCX covered hopper on a BNSF manifest. Bolt marks on the right side of the car show that there used to be a plaque there with the words "America's Resourceful Railroad", Milwaukee Road's motto. I thought it was kind of cool to know that this car had passed by it's old homerails, the remnants of the MILW bridge over the BNSF in Lind, WA.
