The road number is 3516, for the 35th car in the A.F. Commemorative Car series and the year 2016. The car comes with American Flyer-compatible couplers and wheels. The car is a Chicago & North Western flat car, that includes 18 pallets of plastic refractories as a load, headed to a steel mill for relining of the soaking pits (or some other industrial usage). Soaking pits were used by steel mills from the 1920s through 1975. Pallets are decorated for the Chicago-based Plibrico Co. Plibrico invented clay-based refractories around the turn of last century and was a major supplier of these materials. Pallets are scale and are held in place by "heavy duty cargo netting". Additional sets can be ordered separately, either decorated or undecorated.
