A couple of moldy oldies on their head
Author: rgcw5

Somehow yesterday I wound up pointing the car East and missed every exit on the way to fernley for lunch, afterwards I decided to fill up my suburban over at the Love's truck stop and happened to see these two old fallen flags still doing work over at Nevada cement... why the picture is upside down I have no idea!

We get a lot of these down here in Texas and I always love seeing them. Handful of DRGW ones still kicking too

As you've seen, Nevada Cement is indeed coal-fired. We get a bunch of fallen flag cars through Sparks headed for NV Cem, including CRIP, BN, DRGW, and as your pic shows, MP and CNW.
