Bill et al I think that the photo you are referrencing is in that oversize photo album..maybe put out by Kalmbach...the stuff was vintage 1940-s early 50's...I have it someplace and will try to find it when I return from the BRHS annual meet.

I recalling seeing a photo in a very old "Trains Magazine" of a solid tank car train on the Q. As I remember, it was pulled by FTs and the photo was taken somewhere on the Wind River line. As far as tank car ownership, back in WWII as it is now, most of the tank cars were private owner, primarily GATX and UTLX. I don't know how the WPB restrictions applied to them, but I assume that every available tank car was pressed into shipment of oil and oil products for the war effort.
