BNSF 480465
Title:  BNSF 480465
Description:  Part of a consist of what had to be at least 120 empty brand spanking new BNSF "Swoosh" covered hoppers. One of them had not even been loaded and it had a flat wheel, causing quite a racket as it passed my position at MP 353.8 on the BNSF Forth Worth Sub.
