Numerous additions and revisions keeping this publication current with AAR and DOT requirements has necessitated a complete reprinting. There are revisions in safety relief flow rating requirements and approvals, a new list of certified facilities for tank fabrication and repair, an index of special commodity requirements, and a new section giving tank car definitions. Many of the appendixes have been completely rewritten.
