Maybe a better candidate would be a single dome GATC tank car and adding a copy of the small dome from a Tangent 3 dome car. Isn't this what RTV and polyurethane were invented for? This way the domes will be closer to the prototype.

I think Tony Thompson did a blog post about kitbashing the Tydol -Veedol car.

I would say with the intercommerce of commodities between companies its plausible you could see any tank car just about anywhere. You could also pretend a car is being leased out.

Actually, don’t think I did. It was entirely scratchbuilt as a contest entry. (I do use it in operating sessions.) Snapshot below.
