Title:  ACL 500000
Description:  A nicely preserved ACL 500000 sits at the depot in Rocky Mount, NC. A unique experiment in freight car design, which was not replicated, the body was stainless steel and the hoppers seperated internally, allowing it to carry separate commodities in each of the 4 hoppers.
