Remarks: The birds singing in the trees had to take a temporary back seat as a northbound manifest rumbled up the street through Ashland, led by ES40DC 5250, C40-8W 7822, and patched C40-8W 7921 still in LMS livery. The LMS unit was not the only surprise though; a pink (PINK?!?) high-sided scrap gon made me want to double-check my beverages for alcohol content (that was only Vitamin Water in that bottle, I swear!)

Awesome video Dave! That was Q410, what a nice catch on that 7921!

The pink Thrall gon is leased by the Evergreen Freight Car Services. It is EAMX 5017, Sullivan Scrap, Holyoke MA. Also painted for breast cancer awareness. There is a pink ribbon in each top rectangle brace above the inner wheel.

@Kyle and Denis - thanks for the comments gentlemen, they are much appreciated. @Lanny - Interesting...I had a fleeting thought it might have been for something like that. I really thought since all of the Sullivan Scrap cars I see are just basic black, somebody was just having some fun painting one in a loud color.
