I didn’t read the whole post... but those are tri-level auto racks... not “prison cars”.

Yep, “vandal resistant”. Carrying a quarter million of inventory you kind of want some security, huh?

That’s what I thought as well.

Having said that, I retired from the materials handling industry and worked extensively with Thrall Car Manufacturing (the largest producer of those enclosed auto transport rail cars). They began enclosing them due to vandals shooting up the autos along the right of way.

Those cars were NOT connected with accordian devices between them as seen here. If these ARE auto transport cars, they are far more expensively built than those made by Thrall.

I guess we’ll have to wait and see, won’t we?

Kind of like the supposed 'FEMA Coffins' that actually where cotton bale holders. In the YouTube video that is going around about them, you can actually see cotton on the ground around them. Of course, never let the facts get in the way of a good conspiracy.

It isn't as evil when looked upon from this angle.

If they can keep people out they can also keep them in. You have a nice time at the camp. I'm not going.
