at work today I noticed a conspicuous trailer at freedom metals which is next to our yard.  Upon further investigation I noticed this trailer which is totally comprised of a cut up csx gon! All four sides are from the gon, I couldnt believe it, what an odd sight :o  gotta admit, Ive seen fences made of boxcar doors and storage buildings made of cabooses and engine cabs, but this was a first.

Adam... that actually looks like a container chassis that the Gon is on... I wonder if they can remove it like standard containers?

Yeah I noticed the same thing, Im not sure if it will or not, its been sitting there a couple weeks now and Ive never seen em use it.  Id love to see if it would seperate or not.

no, thats just a old steel trailer with gon sides welded on it. maybe we could call this a CSX roadrailer.
