      Now you have me totally confused.

      What do you mean by "the file still reads that line". Which file reads which line?

        The Data file here is the output to the file and the screen:
        There are 16 Car(s); <---- This line needs to be removed
        There are 4 Hopper Car(s) <---- This is the output
        Which is false there are Not 16 cars there are only 4 cars.
