    Amazing catch man, we caught that guy back in March 2022. Nice to see him still roaming the rails in that rustic paint, and definitely not many of those left!

    Terrific train capture with the YN2 engine and the rare boxcars you mention... The refrigerators with the Santa Fe blue cross logo were cool to see as well !!

    They were likely in tow (even though they were online) to get sent to another yard for switching duties
