  4. Rusty hopper

    Rusty hopper

    I thought I've seen a lot of junk at the scrap yard, but this one is still working! I think its still used in Revenue service, thus isn't even MOW! Judging by the freshly applied rpeorting marks (now visible well here), it and about a dozen hoppers just like it, will be rolling for a long time...

    Caught him a while back. Sorry that the photo is so small, had I known such small cars existed (it's a cut-down hopper), I would of zoomed in more then I ussually do. He caught me completely off-guard, right between regular stuff.

    Just a hopper

    As the RRF hopper passes through the Pinawa/Whiteshell provincial park, a rabbit wonders what's happening, as he has never seen a train before. The only thing that the 3 pictures put together have in common, is they were shot within 60 miles of Winnipeg.
