PROTOTYPE
INFORMATION : |
The
33,900 gallon LPG tank car is one of the largest standard tank cars
used today. While Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and Anhydrous Ammonia
are the two most common commodities, they are also used to transport
butadiene, isoprene and gasoline. These cars can be seen regularly
in mixed manifest freight trains throughout North America. They
travel singly or in large blocks between producers and distributors. |
