PASSING TRAINS PT52(B)

From last week...
SDN40 is an all Schneider train, as the familiar orange containers roll through Hillsdale Yard.

While SDN40 rolls through, a string of plastic pellet hoppers sits in the yard, awaiting delivery to Pete's Plastics.
This car is a three-unit drawbar-connected NSC 53' wellcar, with six containers of multiple styles. Let's take a closer look.
The bottom container is a Stoughton exterior post container, while the top unit is a CMIC corrugated container.
Both containers in the middle unit are Stoughton boxes, but on these the exterior posts are painted.
Again, a pair of Stoughton containers, one with painted posts, one without. Both containers are facing the same direction; the logo is at the front on the top unit and at the rear on the bottom one.
Next week; the conclusion!
