PASSING TRAINS; PN70 PT3

One of the 33,000 gal LPG tank cars. This is the older design, with the ladders on the ends and a long walkway on top of the car to the manway platform in the middle of the car.
 Another LPG tank car. This one is the newer design, with a long platform on top and the ladders on the sides -a safer design.
 A short, 13,000 gal tank car, also a UTLX car.
 Note the size difference between the LPG car and its "baby brother"!
 This white car carries hydrochloric acid -hence the brown band.
A string of AP&W 50' high-cube boxcars carrying paper rolls east to major printers. New York Times anyone?
Yes, more train is coming! A closer look at some of the cars next week, including one of those pink hoppers!
