For clarification, my comments applied to the EL years. You wouldn't have
seen ACFX reporting marks in DL&W years - ACF used "SHPX" reporting marks
for its leasing fleet. It switched to ACFX in the early 1970s, I think. But
oddly enough, they have brought back the old SHPX reporting marks and can be
seen on tank cars today!

These are probably SHPX tankers.

I'm not sure if the wastewater move was something they wanted to point out,
heh heh :)
