This is a common design used by the Union Tank Line from the 1880's until the after 1910. There were other tank cars built with a similar design, but with differences in details such as truss rods, walks, saddles, head blocks and other items. These are for cars that are earlier than the era of most interest to members of this list. The LaBelle kit is a simplistic model of these cars, but Silver Crash Car Works offered a good model of these cars in two versions. The lettering schemes offered with the LaBelle kit were used, but were put on cars that do not match the model. The lettering schemes offered with the SCCW kit are accurate and are based on photos of these cars. There are plans for these UTL cars in early editions of the Car Builders Cyclopedia and similar references.
