Thx John ... they are RFID car info readers ... gives the computer car number, load, origin and terminating locations and consignee/s ...

there was a group in Nortb Jersey who erected RFID readers along the RR on somebody's property and they were accessing car info for lading content ... they weren't thieves but they were doing sometving with the info ... case went to court and the frauds fought that the car ID readers where on private property ... i believe they were ordered to remove the readers ...
