Title: |
INLX 204 - Arcelor-Mittal Hot Metal Bottle Car |
Description: |
Massive 12 axle hot metal car, formerly Inland Steel car, is a 12 axle car built to transport molten steel between the steel plant in East Chicago, IN to the finishing plant in Riverdale, IL. It may be the only spot left in the US where you can see these rare cars traveling outside a steel plant. This trip is unusual since there are no spacer gondolas between the heavy 12 axle cars. Although empty this time, their weight is still quite large and usually needs to be spaced out. |
