MON 1903
Title:  MON 1903
Description:  Monon 1903 at Knoxville, Tennessee on April 4, 1985, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I would have classified this car as an insulated box car, but I looked it up in the 1971 ORER and it is listed as a refrigerator car, AAR class R206, one of 13 cars that remained in the 1900-1925 number series. I dialed out as much blue as I could without losing the sky, dial the rest out yourself. This was the shady side of the car, the best I could do without crossing the tracks.
