ON THE 4TH; PASSING TRAINS PT47, PT1

On this weekend of the Fourth of July, the America units roll through Hillsdale...

Led, as usual, by 1776, the "Flag" unit, the trio rolls through the yard with DBC47, headed to Chicago.

A pair of FedEx Multimodal boxes are on the head end (only two?).

A pair of APL boxes, followed by a Cold Train Intermodal reefer box on a Swift box.

A Marten box is among more Swift boxes, followed by another pair of Cold Train Intermodal reefers. Cold Train began reefer box service from Washington and Oregon in 2010, shipping to 19 states at its peak. Unfortunately, poor service from BNSF led to the discontinuation of service in 2014.

A view of the Cold Train Intermodal reefer boxes, with a pair of JB Hunt Intermodal boxes following.

As DBC47 leaves town, another train enters; PN70, the Pittsburgh-NYC manifest.Between these two trains, the next month will be booked!
