Anybody need a slightly-used Pontiac!? As the MNYRO pulls into the siding, a very old Pontiac (feel free to comment on the year as I have no clue) sits on its bare axles in the dandelions.

Yes. The cars you think are grain cars are Concrete cars. BNSF has the same ones and for the BNSF ones they go to Lyons Co at the plant there.

Further to my last comment, I found the W & W. They operate in the Shenadoah Valley between Winchester, VA (connecting to CSX) and Hagerstown ( connection to NS). So, not only are those cars a long way from home, it will take at least 2 interchanges to get them back home!

I think the Pontiac is about mid-60's. Of greater interest - who is/are the "Winchester & Western"? They look like grain cars, and the 4th car is obviously leased (WWUX 6148).
