Plastic models for sale
I used to post sales of plastic models that I'd deliver to ChicagoLand/Naperville to save the buyer shipping, but that ain't happening...
So, I have three tank cars and two reefers I would like to

Re: Photo: SP Livestock Car 74207
I believe they just looked for a photo of any stock car to stick in the article. I think the car is in a scrap line. It certainly would be refused for loading.

Re: New Release: Tangent Scale Models GATC 8,000 Gallon Insulated 1917-Design Radial Course Tank Car
The two major disasters I was thinking about both involved casinghead gasoline. One was in September 1915 in Ardmore, Oklahoma where more than 40 were killed and much of the downtown was destroyed.
