Almost looks like this is somewhere in Florida. 1859 had what looked like old rock or scrap gondolas that were destined for what I am guessing to be SLM Recycling.

    Nice shot Carson. Yup, those gons are part of SLM’s fleet. Unique looking cars that’s for sure. Still remember the first time I saw one on 421 and wondering “what the story was on that thing.”

    They’re old Florida phosphate cars, now used to haul scrap from Welland to a mill in Ohio.

    Interesting, thanks Rob. Didn’t know their lineage.
