Just seen the news report after the world series, theres like 14 cars off the tracks and two grain hoppers fell off the low trestle bridge spilling tons of grain ,the bridge is damaged.

If my eyes don't deceive me, there's a blue Rock hopper in that mess.

Lessee, now - hasn't it been about 29 years?

29 years and 7 months since the ROCK ceased operations. In the Midwest, you can still see an occasional piece of their rolling stock.

Up here in the Northwest you can still occasionally see Northern Pacific and Great Northern woodchip hoppers. They haven't been operating under that flag for 39 years!
