Viewing Album:  NS Coil Car Train at Burns Harbor
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:2/27/2012 - 2/27/2012
Album Info:For the Burns Harbor steel mill area, this is a typical loaded coil car train headed up by two Norfolk Southern and moving slowly to the east. What is a little rarer are the large number of Gary Railway coil cars, all ex-Elgin Joliet and Eastern Rwy cars, and all new numbers to me. Must have been the latest batch of cars sold to Gary Railways.
