Several companies produce 3 dome cars, you could cut out the middle dome. 2 dome cars were pretty rare in the US.

N-scale tank car, US-army, two domes?
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, August 5, 2005 2:44 PM
In WW2, the US Army used tank cars with 2 domes. After the war, they left some of these cars in the Netherlands. Oil companies, like Esso, used them. Today, some of them are at a museum depot.

Are there any N-scale models of these tank cars? Or models that, with a little modification, look like them?
