Remarks & Notes 
Now this is a rare appearance. BNSF 4794 South leads an entire train of McCloud Railroad Centerbeam Cars down the Front Range Subdivision. This train originated from Laurel, Montana and is going to Minnequa, Colorado, where the Pueblo Steel Mill is located. For the past few years, these cars were reportedly stored 50 - 70 miles East of Missoula, Montana on the MRL Line from Laurel to Bozeman and beyond. It appears these cars might be going to the Pueblo Steel Mill to be scrapped or for something else. We'll see what happens then. After looking at the condition of these cars, I don't see why you would need to scrap them; they look fine to me.
