Two stupid questions about 60C:

1. Regular gondolas?

2. Empties?

I saw a southbound unit train of what appeared to be empty gons a few weeks ago rolling through Georgetown, KY and am wondering if that might have been the symbol.

Thank you.

Maybe this is a stupid question, but is this steel imported??

I believe 60C's origin is Colehour Yard in Hammond, IN.  I'm guessing the steel of from a mill in that area.

Whichever mill ArcelorMittal now operates in NW Indiana is the likely origin.
