I just got back from a great day in Portola where my family and I enjoyed the 23rd annual Portola Railroad Days celebration. Since I'm short on time, I have put together a set of covered hopper photos which I have been meaning to post for a while. There's a little of everything including cylidricals, centerflows, and rib-sided hoppers. There's even a CEFX hopper which has been 'upgraded' with whitewalls! I was a little disappointed that the hydraulics, gold plated wheels and neon lights were absent after the aftermarket upgrade.
