CICX 13437 - Ciner Wyoming |
Description: |
One of the empties picked up by the UPY local run was this empty covered hopper. Although not yet recognized by the RRPA database, the reporting mark "CICX" I believe belongs to Ciner Wyoming and part of the Turkish Ciner Holding. |

NAHX 61208 - Wells Fargo Rail |
Description: |
The other empty covered hopper being picked up the UPY local was this Wells Fargo Rail one. Still don't know how a graffiti "artist" can tag the entire side of a car. Do they use a ladder? If so, why aren't they caught lugging around a suspicious ladder? lol |
