Martin,
Here are some photos of the Atlas-O, 2-rail 17,360 gallon Chlorine cars. I sold them 2 years ago to buy more intermodal models. To the extent I still remember when I compared models through the box at hobby shops many years ago, it seemed like the 17,600 gallon corn syrup cars were fatter & shorter than the Chlorine cars.
These are just my opinion,
Thanks,

Great photography!! You make me want to go out and buy some.
What do you think of the Atlas 17,360 "chlorine" cars? Do they compare favorably to these corn syrup cars, in terms of detail and accuracy?
Very nice pictures all. Don't the 17,600 gallon syrup cars pitch toward the center?
All the Atlas tank cars weigh a lot more than the Lionel 30K modern gallon cars do.
Yes the 17,600 have the pitch to the center, both ride on 100T RB trucks I don't think Atlas has had a run of the 17,360 cars in a long time, they were nicely done at the time first announced in 2004.
