A nice look at the "A" end of a covered hopper for some details and weathering for the modelers out there. The train is running along side State Street in Green Bay as it heads back to the North Green Bay yard. (Formerly a Chicago & Northwestern facility.)

T. P. Bruss General I like head-on views of a train as much as anyone else, but I am intrigued by several aspects of this view, the often underappreciated going-away shot. The weathering on the end of the covered hopper; the lightweight, segmented rail with numerous broken ties in the foreground; the partially visible engineer; the railroad cars which are partially visible, yet unrecognizable, above the fence background right; all combine to make an interesting shot. 10/16/2015 4:40:55 AM
