Belle
Title:  Belle
Description:  When these cars were new, they often ran in solid trains, along with KCS power in the then new retro Belle scheme. It made for an impressive looking train. Ten years on, the new cars arent so new anymore, and run randomly. This one is in a southbound grain train at Watts. It's a little bit dusty, but looks pretty good for ten years on the road.
