Today, just for fun, I decided to get an aerial view of the Bethlehem steel stacks. While doing some investigation I noticed quite a few rusting hulks so, I was wondering what some of you could ID for me. First on the trestle. There appears to be 6 hoppers on the trestle wuth one just out of view to the West. Next, to the East there seems to be some tippers and other misc cars. Finally, to the South Bethlehem yard where some random stuff looks to have become oversized planters.

There is still a lot of rail equipment in the Bethlehem plant, from wide gauge ore transfer cars to hot metal and slag cars and other stuff that is in the collection of the National Museum of Industrial History. There is an ingot on a flatcar that also belongs to the NMIH.
