Years ago, Keel Middleton said, "Not sure where the ballast came from but your train here is the U-CNAPIS9-15B. It is a unit train from Corona, CA to Pisgah, CA. Looks like it might have originally came from Pedernal, NM and they spot dumped in various locations between Topock, AZ and Corona going west then turned back east dumping more until it was empty."
