Re: Ownership Of Tank Cars In 1950
Garth,
my July 1950 ORER doesn't list any WP tank cars.

best regards,

Somehow “Bill McClure” is a very familiar name. Did you write articles for some modeling magazines in the past?
Wonderful looking models, Bill.

Re: Ownership Of Tank Cars In 1950
All-
Note that this list may not be very accurate due to the way private owner cars are reported and listed in the ORER.
For example, the John H. Grace Company is listed in Jerry’s compilation
