I'm in total agreement with Greg's statement. <br />CNW got a lot of Rock Island's freight cars when they went under.Most of the ex-ROCK cars I see are in the blue scheme with CNW reporting marks. <br />They are usually grain hoppers(probably built by Pullman-Standard),and I've seen ROCK's ACF Center Flow hoppers with RUSX reporting marks.I recall seeing an ex-ROCK hopper in Enid,Oklahoma in 1997 with UP reporting marks. <br /> <br />Just recently I observed a BNSF grain train with three Frisco grain hoppers in the consist.Always nice to see a Fallen Flag car still in revenue service.
