Those signals on the road are in serious need of upgrading. Wow.

Great shot John. I had to leave just before the train ran and missed getting the photo.

The signals are the originals installed in the 1940s. They operated until 1989, but have been silent since then.

The car numbered UHRR 107 appears to be an old composite gondola which has had it's sides cut down, except at each end and then had it's sides returned to the as built height with wood. Some of these gondolas were used in M of W service and are very old due to being built during World War II. I would bet money that this car either still has friction bearings or now rides on replacement roller bearing trucks.
