MSTS 50 foot (80 Ton) Carbon Black hopper cars ACFX 46227, AFCX 46367, and CCX 584

A trio of 3-bay ACF CenterFlow hopper car in new condition. These are reskins of John Petersen's model below.

New skins by L. W. Shell are based on photos taken by the author at Schriever, Louisiana, and Baldwin, Louisiana, in 2006. L. W. Shell also thanks Peterson and "Ace" Ellison for their additional contributions below.

I've used Shape File Manager to scale the CCX 584's length to 51 feet. (Peterson's original model was 58 feet long).

These models are freeware, and are not to be redistributed for profit. Please observe all Copyright and Distribution conditions from the original readme file below.
