Unusual silver passenger cars (?) sitting on flatbeds
Can anyone tell me what exactly this train is used for? It had water transport cars, boxcars painted silver with windows and a door, and these strange portable quarters on flatbeds. This was at the end of an ordinary mixed freight.

Bernie Feltman	General	You've stumbled upon a work train with crew quarters. Think of those things on the flatcars as campers. This is a mobile village designed to let the crews live close to the work being performed, especially when the work is in a remote location. One day, perhaps you'll a set like this all set up for the crews and this will make a lot more sense to you	3/11/2010 9:19:17 AM
