Ed,
If my memory serves me correctly, the NASG imported a set of tank cars in
brass through Overland sometime in the middle 80's. A couple of these cars
were large dome, unpressurized type. I think they were of 8000 or 10000 gallon
capacity, maybe typical of UP or SP. Also, SouthWind imported some large dome
tank cars in brass in the late 80's, or early 90's. They are hard to find, but
keep watch on eye on ebay and at S events.
