Hi Bob:  On the CNW a loaded train of dead freight, such as a coal train, was 
called that: a coal train heading for Black River Falls (BRF) for example was 
called "Barf Coal."  When the train was emptied and the equipment came back 
it was called "BRF (Barf) Hoppers."   There were several other names, but some 
would not pass the censors.  Nubes
