Green survivor
Title:  Green survivor
Description:  This ex MKT two bay hopper was westbound on 12T. Looks good if a little faded almost twenty years after the Katy disappeared into UP. The HLMX initials show as belonging to Helm Financial, Wells Fargo Rail, or First Union Rail, so could be any of those.
