TILX 400711
Title:  TILX 400711
Description:  The yellow spray writing on the tank states "cleaned & purged 10-6-11". Looks like this tank was involoved in a rollover accident and is heading back for repair or scrapping. The BN gondola coupled to the tank looks like it was also involved in a derailment but it's just beaten up.
