UTLX owned some of these, e.g. UTLX 39150. I think all of the others are foobies. The UTLX tank car had an extra pair of raised weld seams on either side of the dome, they almost look like bands. And the placards of course were UTLX style. Otherwise it's a near perfect match. I can't vouch for the car numbers IRC is offering. Also make sure the lettering is yellow if it's UTLX -- some models have featured white UTLX lettering, which AFAIK is bogus. There were very few owners of these cars. The US Army was the largest owner. Tim O'Connor
