If I ever get around to making some MOC trains (almost inevitable, at this
point), they'll all be tankers, covered hoppers & switchers, because that's
all I ever see out here.  On an average day, I drive past the main rail yard
a couple times, which varies between 20 or 30 cars and 1 or 2 hundred.  I
think Dow has (had?) about 10 switchers out here, but I'm not sure if
they're all current... I know I've seen "01" and "09", and some in between,
but I've never seen more than about 4 at any given time.

Cute little suckers. :)
