Historical Chemical Company shippers..

All
As part of the ongoing discussion on where commodities shipped to/from... I was looking for info on one of my favorite oxymoronic tank car names: "The Philidelphia Quartz Co. of California" (Kaminksi, ACF, p95)... ...and found a most useful list: Historical chemical companies listed by State/City... <http://www.heritageresearch.com/Chemical%20Companies.html> So... there is a good chance that PQCX 111 and 112 -must- have headed for Berkeley, CA on the SP Mulford line! [Please refrain from comment about tank car loads of Oxy-Morons...] Richard =============================== Richard Brennan - San Leandro MP 17.8 (Robert) on the SP Mulford Line =============================== |
