NS P59 Hopper Pickup
Title:  NS P59 Hopper Pickup
Description:  Maybe some of the other Sylva railfans can shed light on this. P59 picked up four woodchip hoppers from this siding in Addie. Just behind the last car is pile of dirt marking that the siding has been railbanked. Such hoppers are normally stored at T&S hardwoods where they are loaded and I assume that is where 59 took them on the return trip. Im just curious why they were there and if anyone has seen this before.
