Viewing Album:  Intraplant Flat Cars at ArcelorMittal Steel
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:1/7/2012 - 1/7/2012
Album Info:Movement of raw and finished products at a steel plant like the ArcelorMittal steel mill is a daily switching activity. These photos are of the routine switching of the intraplant flat cars used to move slabs of newly created steel within the plant itself. Always enjoy the nicknames that some of the flat cars have been given. It's like seeing an old friend again when one of them appears!
