Well there is your answer. I said alloys were used and not carbon steel. But... If that is just plain 316SS that stuff will eventually eat it over years.Usually in the plant IF it could be purchased in hasteloy or some other exoctic that would be the preference for durability.

I still doubt the whole rail cars are SS. They are probably double walled tanks the inner being SS or carbon thats lined.

Yes. No one said stainless wasn't good..

Earlier you spoke of steel. Rubbet lined is fine. Have a look at your railcars. The giant words that say "do not weld, rubber lined" means its rubber lined. The 18 wheeler tankers are stainless that are used to truck caustic out of our facility.
