From: Brian Carlson To: STMFC@... Sent: Saturday, July 04, 2009 1:48 AM Subject: [STMFC] Small tank cars Like Jared and others I would like some small tank cars too. This is a good segue to a question I have been meaning to ask. The Ethyl corporation had some small capacity tanks for lead anti-knock compound. I have seen some color photos of these cars in a colorful paint scheme with a triangular herald. My question to the list is, how common was this ethyl scheme? Was it the dominate (only?) scheme used by Ethyl in the 50's or were many more cars painted black with only leasing information? Refer to pages 17, 121, 132 of Kaminski's ACF Tank car Book for photos. Brian J. Carlson, P.E. Cheektowaga NY |
