Western Railroad Discussion > Some Of Today's This and That

It was a partly cloudy to cloudy day with a few drips in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub. The High-low was 64/38. Traffic was fairly steady, but I was engaged in yard activites between rain storms. Managed to catch a little of this and that today and one from yesterday.

Larry,

Nice job! Any idea on the heritage of the converted boxcar second out on that work train?

Ron

Sorry, not sure on the boxcar heritage. Maybe someone can help out on the heritage.
