GRW 4209 - Gary Railways |
Description: |
A newcomer spun off from the 2009 sale of the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Rwy to CN, this one time EJ&E gondola now sports the "GRW" label. The frequency of spotting these is increasing in direct opposition ot EJ&E spottings while the transfer of one to the other takes place. It's sad to see the EJ&E disappear piece by piece! |

This former NS coil car bears a warning label of "Open Car - Do Not Cover" along its side, something that you don't see very often. Not sure why since these cars were covered at times when they belonged to NS. |

This former SOO gondola has definitely not seen the inside of a paint shop in a long, long time. Have noticed that almost every CN train that passes through Griffith has at least one token WC car in it and very few are found riding behind anything but CN power. |
