Hot Metal Bottle Car Train |
Description: |
The hot metal car train has just passed under the Hohman Avenue bridge and would have been next to the IHB Hohman Tower on the right if it were still standing. Note the glowing top of the last hot metal car! The red spot below is NOT a leak, just a dwarf signal. |
