BNSF 480539 covered hopper
Title:  BNSF 480539 covered hopper
Description:  BNSF 480539 covered hopper wearing Frisco badge of honor coming off the girder span at North Bonneville and a good demonstration about the good humor of ones spouse after parking the car for lunch after gathering the family *after* the husband with camera had staked out a neat place to catch a train (and waited for more than an hour standing on a neighboring auto bridge guardrail post for an hour without a single train)... so he parked the car "as train bait" below the bridge where said good-humored spouse reluctantly sat in the car eating lunch while the rest of the family got out of the car wandering about the creek area, etc. and, uh, long way to say, "Sorry about that," because the amount of gross drippings off a grain train is far greater than I wouldve ever imagined... but, hey, the bait worked!
