Hi folks,

Here's a slide I recently acquired - it's a wonderful Bob Malinoski shot
(the things you can shoot when you're an EL employee!) of cylindrical hopper
#20002 after a accident at Croxton Yard.

Of course, the covered hopper is the center of attention here, but look at
all the neat stuff that can be seen in this photo:

* The overlapping switches in the yard ladder at the left (that is NOT a
double slip!)
* The row of 40' boxcars at the distant left
* The fact that all the switches have self-guarding frogs (and no guard
rails)
* The neat single-sheathed C&NW (I think?) boxcar at the right, coupled
between an Erie 52'6" gon and an EL 2-bay covered hopper (the JJL Models
kit, as a matter of fact!)

Enjoy this look that only a railroader could get!

- Paul
