CNW 178084, end view
Title:  CNW 178084, end view
Description:  This view of CNW 178084 shows the lettering applied to the top right corner, some of the brake gear, and the walkway material attached to the top. There is plenty of lettering on the slope sheet but it's hard to read, because of the grime and the haze from the setting sun. This car was in the BNSF yards at Abilene, KS on 3-26-2013.

Title:  CNW 178084, angled view
Description:  This view of CNW 178084 shows more of the end lettering plus the side. This car has what looks like a small pipe or conduit running along the bottom edge--was this unique to C&NW cars, or just this one? Abilene, KS: 3-26-2013.
