New Korex photos

Here a trackmobile is coupled to a covered hopper. 

I was in the neighbourhood over the weekend and using a long lens from a parking lot was able to snap some pictures of rolling stock on the spurs at Korex.

I wrote about modelling this industry in this post.  Some of the research about the industry I put here.



Here's a wide shot of the same hopper. Graffiti artists can't seem to resist the white canvas of these cars.

Another rusty hopper on one of four tracks that serve Korex.
