Another oil company car please.

Where I grew up there was a little Cities Service gas station at a street corner. Walked past it every day going to school. Just one of those things that sticks with you.

Never had much to do with Royal Dutch Shell but I liked this old "T" tanker.

Okay, it's been a while. When I was a kid it was B/A oil. Dad filled the car there and our good friend owned a B/A service station and fixed our car(s) I have an affinity for anything B/A oil and these propane cars are way past my timeline. I heard that Atlas made 6#s and I kept my eye out for all six. I paid between $20.00 and $40.00 each to collect them all. The last one I got, I spotted at a train show from a distance and as I walked towards it I pulled my list of #s from my wallet, and sure enough, it was the one I did not have. That was the $40.00 one.Laugh

 

Another oil company car please.

A 'must have'  railroad item  even though it is out of timescale. area or whatever.

There are a few.

This load of brand new 1955 Buicks is one. I model August, 1954, so the time is too old for this automobile's presence. The new model year would have come out in September, 1954, so MAYBE it is semi-plausible that they might have been in shipment.

However, I loved the car models, and I always wanted one of these Athearn "car carrier" train cars. So I had to have it.

I like this topic. How about another "must have" railroad item that is in your collection even though it is out of time period, scale, geographical area, or whatever.
