Filled small BUY for TRN @ $18.37/share. These replace the ones I sold 10/2018 @ $38.80/share. Will double position if this one falls to new lows at/below $16.50/share. My other shares were bought 5/2016 at $12.38/share.

Position still quite small as this is not that great a sector to own in a recession and/or slow down.

Started small position in GBX. Will add every 5% lower and when div hit 5%-6%. Great assets selling 0.5x BV

I have been adding to ANDE as they have a railcar division which I believe is undervalued.

Gave up on Freightcar America (RAIL) and have been looking for other railcar equipment/service companies. I own GBX and TRN. Now ANDE.

The Andersons Rail Group Danville, IL. Our Danville, Illinois repair facility can handle full service freight car repair including wreck repair, paint, blast, and lining. The Danville shop is served by CSX and can hold up to 300 cars for repair
They do Sales, Leasing & Repair/Fabrication but somewhat hidden as it is an operating Division under the Anderson Group (mainly commodities and fertilizers).
