Generally, freight trains bound for, or going past Tokyo take the Musashino Line. The Musashino Line starts in Tsurumi in Kawasaki, circumnavigates the downtown core to Urawa in Saitama, and back south to Funabashi in Chiba. Freight trains take this route as a way to avoid the crowded passenger corridors between Omiya and Kawasaki.
There is one exception to this rule, train 3086. This daily cross-country intermodal train starts in Sapporo and terminates in Nagoya, a journey covering around 1500km. The shortest route between these two points takes this train through Tokyo via the Yamanote Freight Line and Shonan-Shinjuku Line. This means it'll pass Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Harajuku, Shibuya, and Osaki before heading south to Nagoya. It is the only regularly scheduled daylight freight train on this passenger heavy corridor and is quite sought after among local tori-tetsu.
Here, EH500-44 leads the train into Ebisu on a cool, sunny Wednesday afternoon.

For Freight Car Friday here's one that except for the graffiti looks as if it could be a publicity shot for TTX.
While I miss the classic Plate C 50 ft boxcars dressed in assorted railroad schemes that were so prevalent the last four decades it's nice to see that the all American boxcar is still alive. Nowadays the prevalent car type is 60 ft Plate F 286K cars like this string of double plug door TTX owned cars. TBOX 666573 in the center is two decades old having been built by National Steel Car in Hamilton, ON as part of thousand car order job number 1290 between Jun 2004 and Mar 2005.
Long strings of boxcars going to the many warehouses in the Boston Suburbs fed by CSXT's Framingham based locals are common on this train, Selkirk to Worcester manifest train M436 (which had run around M264 at Palmer) which is seen crossing the ancient double stone arch bridge over the Quabog River at about MP 75.5 on modern day CSXT's Boston Subdivision, the once and forever Boston and Albany Railroad mainline.

Always a good day when you walk the line and some fresh line up hits your dock. Welcome to my world. By the grace of the AUB & CBS this line up made my month of april and of this year thus far...
Drove up to the old Santa Fe grade crossing at Rt 26, got out of the vehicle, and was just in time to see two FAST moving freights go by, one eastbound, one west. The blue & white diesel in this photo is a leased unit, heading up a fast moving westbound stack train.
Interesting note: I intentionally set my Olympus zoom on 25mm, which is the exact same as a 50mm in 35mm SLR photography. No telephoto or wide-angle, just a nice, boring straght-forward wedge shot of a passing train, just as you would have seen it had you been standing next to me.
