Modern boxcars

[chessie]

Since the ACL basically ceased to exist in 1967, did they ever roster any "Modern" large boxcars, such as 86 footers or even 60 footers?

The ACL did indeed have some "modern" boxcars. They had a small fleet of 60 footers thatwere used in paper service. They also had 86 ft. autoracks as well.
