NOGALES -- U.S. customs officers in Nogales say they've found three loads of marijuana inside railroad cars entering the country from Mexico in the last week.

The Nogales International reports the largest of the marijuana seizures came Wednesday when officers found 14 bundles of marijuana inside a railroad car loaded with fish meal. The officers noticed something unusual on an X-ray scan and then located the bundles with a probe.

Marijuana weighing 345 pounds was found when the car was unloaded.

Officers had found 120 pounds of pot in a rail car on Monday. A single bundle weighing more than 20 pounds was found later in the week in an empty car on a train headed into the U.S.
