The red, white and blue strips are codes which will be interpreted through electronic scanning devices and data conversion units for transmittal to computers which will store and relay, basically, car numbers and owner initials to a central information bureau of the AAR in Washington, D.C. The name of the operation is automatic car identification (ACI). All the nation's freight equipment used in interchange is expected to be labeled on each side and ready for instantaneous automatic identification by 1970 when the Washington center starts keeping up-to-the-minute records on the locations of all the cars, containers and piggyback trailers on the rails throughout the nation. This information will be available to railroads and shippers all over the country. The cover illustration shows one of the early installations of an ACI label.
