Reply to "Tank CARS"

Here are some two and three dome tank cars that a two railer friend picked up for me in 2016 in Chicago and two tanks cars I picked up  back in March 2017 during my second visit to the Chicago O scale show.

I could not make it to Chicago in 2016, so I ask my two railer friend to find me a two or three rail car. He found this great looking UTLX tree dome tank for me.

 

Texas Company 2 dome tank car

I picked up these tow 2 dome tank cars in Chicago back in March.  The Texas Company two dome was an undecorated brass model. My two railer friend painted and lettered the car for me, and I added the Atlas three rail trucks.

I found this Tydol Veedol two tank car ready to run. all I had to do was add the switch out the two rail trucks for Atlas three rail trucks. Atlas has announced a single dome Tydol Veedol tank car in the Masters Line that I will have to order for sure.

I like the fact that two and three rail O scale tank cars always come with private ownership markings. The Lionel 3 dome tank cars and MTH three dome tank cars are nice, but more often then not they are made with railroad road names, which is just not prototypically correct for most  tank cars.  

Take care,

Richard
