TCWX 4120
Title:  TCWX 4120
Description:  This looks like TOWX 4120, a former Katy (M-K-T) covered hopper. Please let me know if I have any of the information wrong. Sorry for the less-than-stellar quality but I'm facing southwest and you can see the setting sun behind the car. Besides, I wanted to get this photo because it's been a long time since I saw a former Katy car! Bettendorf, IA: 1-09-2012. CORRECTION: This is TCWX 4120.
