Geneva Short	General	Nice find, Fred...split personality! I think these old wood chip cars were shortened for coke service without the bother of repainting (so there's a yellow seam in the middle and the "Family Lines System" lettering is cut off. . Low budget!	11/10/2011 4:18:21 PM

Randy Curlin	General	Wow a chop shop special	11/11/2011 2:53:16 PM

Bernie Feltman	General	Low cost solution to a high-volume, low-density cargo. I was very surprised the first time I saw one of these but it makes great sense	11/18/2011 10:37:20 AM

Fred Stuckmann	General	Thank you.	11/18/2011 11:15:59 AM

There were a number of these in the train. Wood chip cars with the center section removed. Frankenhoppers. Thanks for checking these cars out. I try where possible to show clean ones.
