this falls into that category as well as the switcher next to the boston convention center.
i grow weary of seeing various railcars sitting in weeds. last time i looked, some derelict boxcar was sitting at 'tremont' . been there for years full of railroad junk.
the facts are that these railroad folk don't want to spend the money to clean up their operations. the railcar in sandwich. railties in the weeds catching fire. time to impose 'clean railroads row 'federal legislation. ken patrick
