Re: PC: Former G39 ore jennies still operating?



 A few ride through Austin on the Union every so often that look a lot like these. Their FXE marks mean Ferromex, so that goes some way toward explaining their oddball-ness. The thing is, we don't have a mill, and any aggregate rides out on either Georgetown Rail's own cars, Union Pacific, Austin Area Terminal, or rentals.
 Maybe they're aggregate cars. That's the best I can think of.
