Ross Rowlands car
Title:  Ross Rowlands car
Description:  The ACE 3000 was Ross Rowlands brainchild. He founded American Coal Enterprises to explore the prospects for a high tech steam engine, for which he got Chessie to let him run a month of test trains with C&O 614. This car was his private car, from which he directed the action.
