DUPX 28723 8 axle upgrade & backdate
Author: tankcarsrule

I built this car 10 years ago. For the upgrade, I add Archer weld lines, the large DuPont football logo, older cots and aci tags and a few others.
Then I weathered it.
There were 70 of these cars. They hauled 43,800 gals of Ethylene Glycol. This car was built in 1969, all were gone by 2011. To see blocks of up to six cars was an impressive site.

Thanks, Bobby
