    OK, so it's HO. Just discovered that Athearn put out a triple-dome tank in this scheme in June.....

    That's a complete hoot, considering my name, and that I have three sons! Never heard of it before.

    So, anybody out there have any information or pictures about the real cars? Man, they didn't last into the 70's....... or did they??? I'll have to look that up in my Equipment Registers....

    If that's the Florida dairy Gustafsons, I have refrigerator magnets with "mom & pop" on them already..... as a collector of trivia (garbage?) with that name emblazoned on it.

    But, tank cars..... that's cool.

    I thought it was already neat to have the presonal reporting marks of RDG. Yes, I have Reading cars all over the layout, Santa Fe or not!
