Nice shot, LucasMR. For those who haven't seen other pictures, what appears to be a long horizontal white line about 2/3 down the tarpaulin actually has sayings like "Denounce child sexual exploitation", "Denounce child slavery", "Value your work", "Conserve water", etc. As Lucas said, since this train goes slower it's essentially a long advertisement, and what's more interesting is that, like this railroad's other major clients, both the ALL railroad and the VCP conglomerate put their logos atop each tarpaulin. It would be like BNSF and Dupont putting their logos atop a similar series of messages all along a unit train in the U.S.A. Fascinating to see. (Unfortunately but not unexpectedly, someone has vandalized one of the tarps right on the slogan.)
