Hi folks,
I had recently an interesting discussion with some old acquaintance about oil tank cars in the early 1970s in Canada. He recalled a lot of them were small and old design from the 30s and 40s. I know at that time most oil company fleets were transferred to CGTZ and other leasers.
What were the common cars in that time? Color scheme? Any pictures welcomed!
I've seen pictures of old B-A cars keeping their paint scheme but renumbered to CGTX.
