Last Sunday out on Norfolk Southern's CNO&TP line I saw a mixed freight train hauling some unusual cars. The were short in length and height. Approx. 30-40' long and about as tall as a flat car. but instead of having a flat bed the sides sloped in towards the center of the car. I was standing slightly below grade so I couldn't see what the interior looked like. The cars were painted a light grey and had NS reporting marks. Along the top on the side was red print that said "OPEN TOP CAR DO NOT COVER". Also it was placarded as HOT. Any body have any idea what these are and what the might bee hauling?
