Western Railroad Discussion > Confused Hopper Back With the Normal CrowdDate: 11/26/12 19:41 Confused Hopper Back With the Normal Crowd Author: BNSF-6432 Several years back I spotted this car a few times going through Tulsa, OK on loads and empties.
And within a week ago, i saw the same car, 7423 with the numbers corrected and patches where CX an 23 originally were. I'd add a shot of the fixed version but unfortunately by the time I realized it was going past me and I put together what it was, it was out of range. Apparently someone got a little tired numbering new coal cars. BNSF-6432 PQM Date: 11/26/12 20:12 Re: Confused Hopper Back With the Normal Crowd Author: 2720 Dyslexic Painter?!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike Date: 11/26/12 20:25 Re: Confused Hopper Back With the Normal Crowd Author: JGFuller Back in the day, the L&N's nickname, liberally displayed on its hoppers, was "The Dixie line". IIRC, there was a photo in Trains of a dyslexic L&N hopper, with the slogan "The Xidie line" !!
