Trackside at ADM's Abilene, KS facility
Description:
This isn't a freight car photo, per se, but you can see part of an unidentified covered hopper to the left, and part of RBOX 34725 trackside at ADM's Abilene, KS facility. This could be an ideal "structure" to model: use this wall as a "flat" model, with the ladders and safety cages for some 3-D effect. The various types of corrugated siding (available at one time from Pikestuff (TM) and Rix Products (TM)), and multiple colors, all give "character" to something like this, as do the windows and vents. Take a look. also. at the lower center. and see how the "port" or one of the doors has different heights for the access point (look just above the snow-covered dirt pile). A couple of tracks for sidings. and a dirt road for parking, would get your model of a business like this ready for your boxcars and covered hoppers, too. Abilene, KS: 3-03-2013.

GATX 210431
Description:
GATX 210431 was painted gray with black lettering, plus a green "LIQUID" logo applied just below and to the left of the ladder. There's also a URL for agroliquid dot com. The safety placard holder was empty so it's hard to tell if this car was in any kind of specific service (fertilizer, other chemicals, e.g.). This car was in the BNSF yards at Abilene, KS on a rather overcast 3-03-2013.

Notice also the lighter area where something else used to be. With the note "SCL 9-82" painted near the leftmost hopper, could this have been a former SCL/Family Lines car?
