There's a whole bunch of coal hopper cars in storage as coal consumption is down. Maybe they could convert those cars from hauling coal to hauling water by installing a large cylindrical tank within the hopper in the area where the coal was hauled.

That would be a nice line-haul for BNSF and UP. From the Great Lakes to the American Southwest!
