Title:  MWCX 462770 and MWCX 462771, both ex-ROCK
Description:  A pair of sequentially numbered MWCX, former ROCK 'Route Rock,' covered hoppers spotted on CN, former C&NW, rails at American Colloid Co. at Snells, WI on 28 Feb. '18. It appears as if both cars have been vandalized by the same miscreant.
