Line of open cars carrying heavy plastic bags.

Hopedale yard. The cars are labeled CHUX which are used for low level radioactive waste, anyone know where the waste is coming from? The only place that I can think of is the superfund site near rt 62 in Concord on the Acton line.

My mistake, I didn't realize just how many weakly radioactive sites are still being cleaned up in Massachusetts.

It took decades to clean up the Combustion Engineering site in Windsor CT. Now they're building housing there.
