Remarks & Notes 
Horizon un-level....oh wait it's just the truck
The A end truck of this rail flatcar has run over a piece of wood cribbing used to separate the layers of rail that were once inside this car. Typically the weight of a steel wheel, axle and empty freight car are heavy enough to cut through anything, but obviously that's not always the case all the time. This is a reminder of why one should never place objects on a track.
