Steel both ends  Contributor's Pick!       
The coils on these cars weight about 40,000 lbs each-which is why you only see one of them on a truck trailer-but a coil car can carry four easily. Theyre over the trucks to put less stress on the car, as the wheels support the weight better. This car is on the north bound H train.
