I had always thought the Tropicana tank car in the Ace-Downs-Rusti line was just a fantasy, until I read today in the Modern Freight Car List - - - - - ----- Original Message ----- From: sjackows
The 2 tank cars were an experiment to move OJ to CA from FL with only a couple of degree drop in temp. It didn't last but a short time. I guess it wasn't worth getting into the tank cars. I heard their shipment made it to CA with only minimal temp drop so it could have worked.
