Almost sounds like it came from the San Luis and Rio Grande Valley down in Alamosa Colo. Quite a few of their cars were auctioned off due to the Iowa Pacific Bankruptcy Alot of that equipment is in an Illinois Central Type paint. Ben

So what would be the odds-on favorite of train symbol to get them to the RBMN? 38G perhaps?

10K, 30A, or 38G would be my guess, although they don’t always work Reading yard.

These went through my backyard at CD 253 in Port Clinton. Sadly I had to be at work and the wife is sicker than a dog.

38G doesn't work Reading so scratch that off the list. My guess would be 10K to Allentown, then 201 to Reading.

Completely forgot about 10K - probably a good call.
