Southbound Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad coiled steel car in transit. Bridgeview Illinois USA. August 2007.

Southbound Indiana Harbor Belt coiled steel car in transit. Bridgeview Illinois. August 2007.
I took this photo in August of 2007, on location at the West 71st Street railroad crossing in southwest suburban Bridgeview Illinois. I spotted this unique Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad coiled steel car in transit on a southbound IHB freight train. Notice the big and bold IHB markings.
