Mercy killing

 

At the Beburg wye, Rick Franklin Corporation crews dismantle 2 derelict passenger cars. These cars, owned by PNWC-NRHS, have been sitting on a nearby spur for about 20 years. They are in extremely poor condition due to decay and vandalism, such poor shape that they had to be trucked out instead of being moved by rail for scrapping. Here, an excavator lifts one end of the car off the truck. This car, PNWC 1220, was built for GN, and was most recently used by NJDOT (Whose paint scheme it wears, albeit obscured by graffiti patches and corrosion)
