Re: 1927 ORER
Quite sure about the purchase of 35 - 8000 gallon cars in
1927 and the LINX reporting marks appear to have been associated only with
Lincoln Oil Refining in 1927, or shortly after. The ORER's that I can't
seem to find...
I am trying to piece together the rest of the
story.
Thanks,

Steve,
are you sure UTLX purchased these cars? The LINX reporting marks now
belong to GE Railcar Services and are part of the NATX North American Tank Car
Lines

I am trying
to trace some Lincoln Oil Refining Company tank cars that were purchased by UTLX
in 1927. I don't see Lincoln, or its reporting marks LINX in the October
1926 ORER and it doesn't show in 1930, either.
I would
appreciate if anyone could share any Lincoln Oil Refining ORER info from any
time in 1927 or later. Lincoln was located in Robinson, Illinois and was a
predecessor of Marathon, which still operates a refinery
there.
Thanks in
advance.
