Hello,

I would like to know if there is any way I could locate specific data (such as length, height and so forth) on the ACL M-5. I might be able to find this info in a ACL car diagram book, if I had one. But alas I don't. Therefore I thought I would ask you gentlemen. You have all been of great help in the past, and I do believe the group knows more about the member railroads than many of the management and owners did. (but don't tell them that)

I do appreciate all of those who do respond to my questions and taking the time to do so.

Thank you all,

Daniel Taylor Edwards
