MP bi-level autorack info request

[Tim Mc]

I'm looking to model a few autoracks like the attached pics from Tom Stolte's & George Elwood's sites and would like to know if the siding is metal, plastic or fiberglass? I'm assuming that sunlight lighting the top panels. A couple of former C&EI racks are definitely sided with metal (last pic).

Thanks! ~Tim

Tim, IIRC the side panels were corrugated metal.

They look metal to me, but one source of info could be the MoPac group on Yahoo

Thanks guys...I recently rejoined the MP group on Yahoo. I bet Tom Stolte would know.
