WOW! what a day today. I was about an hour away from home and saw lots of trains. I've never seen a moving train since i've been MRRing[:O][*^_^*] i saw a stUPid coal train w/ a SD80MAC or SD90MAc (those things are huge!). in a small yard i saw 2 hoppers like this but they were IC not ICG. http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/85-45315 and i saw a stopped train which i think was CN (didn't see the engines) but in the tran was a hopper like this http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/112-2055 [8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D] and on display a little closer to home was and IC 0-8-0 and caboose. I WILL get pics of it someday.
