Re: Canisters In Gondolas
Here's a better view of the photo http://www.canadasouthern.com/caso/images/nyc-501216.jpg on Terry Link's site. The stenciling on the canister's does indicate petroleum products. The ORER for the timeframe MIGHT tell you what they were modified for. Although I wouldn't be surprised is this mod was noted in Railway Age of the time. Brian Carlson

Canisters In Gondolas I understand that canisters were used for cement and possibly other powdered products. Here is a photo (sorry, poor quality) of canisters in a gondola that indicate the contents are a petroleum product. Does anyone know what petroleum products typically were shipped in canisters? Thanks. Bob Chaparro Hemet, CA
