    Shot this in a CSX junk freight in Cordele this afternoon- notice the C&IE lettering inside the MP buzzsaw.

    An oldie but a goodie..................

    Somewhere I'm sure I've got them stored, but UP seems to have a lot of hoppers still in original markings for MP, TP, C&EI as well as CNW and CHTT.

    Nice catch. Once in a blue moon I might catch an old MOP boxcar over at Zacha Jct.

    Ha. I have no problemo getting my MOPAC-fix, 75% of the gons in the area for aggregate service are lettered MP and most still have the turbo eagle and buzzsaw. There's covered hoppers, too!
