    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.

      What file? You're opening two files, both are "data" files, do you mean the input file?

      Your program opens an input file for reading

      opens an output file for writing

      writes stuff to output file

      It doesn't modify input file

      Do you want to modify the original file, do you want to rename outputfile to inputfile?
