Notes:

With damaged tank load. Iron Rail Models owner, Greg Berndtson, recalls the initial run had about 15 of these made, where they used S-Helper Service flat cars. Subsequent runs totaled about 30 where they made their own castings for the flat cars.

This second photo was added, so as to show that each of these damaged tank car bodies was slightly different from the others. So, while this was a standard model that the company produced, each load's damage was somewhat unique.
