UTLX 14387 - Union Tank Line Tank Car
Title:  UTLX 14387 - Union Tank Line Tank Car
Description:  Built in 1910 by the Union Tank Line, this is one of the earliest examples of tank cars. Unfortunately it was prone to leaking due to the method of construction. Later modifications took care of the problem. Now the car is on display at the National Museum of Transportation.
