Made tanks?

Amererican Car And Foundry

A company with that name was located in Berwick Pennsylvania(Near Bloomsburg),It made most of the M3 Stuart Tanks. Dudtz 1/20/05 8:54 PM EST

I believe it is the same company as ACF stopped production of rail equipment and shifted to military production during World War II. Slambo (Speak) 10:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Buses of ACF

I've tagged this for WP:Buses, because American Car and Foundry also made buses. The book Buses of ACF Photo Archive, Including ACF-Brill and CCF-Brill, by William A. Luke is a source to start from. ----DanTD (talk) 03:28, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
