CSX 226671
Title:  CSX 226671
Description:  I probably looked like a mad man to the passing crew when I threw my car into park and ran around the back to catch a B&O hopper. This is the first B&O freight car with the capital dome I've cauptured. Southbound on BNSF. Oh, and pretend like the bush isn't in the way.
