About how long ago did you film this? Those were DDG cars(Distiller Dried Grain). By product of ethanol production. Notice how those car sides are all dented up. DDG's can be a bear to get to come out of the hopper so they stick a probe in there to break it up and dent the side of the car in the process. Thaks for sharing.

i think i filmed this around 1 yr ago in the winter when there was a slim chance of a "buzzworm" encounter. since i enjoy being trackside and watching a "screaming z" too, here ya go. i filmed it a few days ago. enjoy............. 66 Edited 1 time(s).
