(a little repair work): www.flickr.com/photos/53243414@N00/I'm so used to thinking that tank cars are just a series of black tubes on the track. Clearly, I could be in error. Nice! Ed

Looks very nice!!!
That would go well with the ones OMI did (80015 and 80051 with top walkway, 80017 with top heat shields, and 80018 without shields). Glad I landed the OMI ones when they were about $140... they go for $400+ now.

As usual, Bobby, that tank car looks fantastic.
Definitely something a bit different.

Bobby, Very nice work on the Linde car. It's a biggun!
I saw the pics of the double-dome motor oil tank and the bromine tank. Those are great builds, too. Are there write-ups on those available anywhere?

Bobby- very nice job on the Linde car. You really needed pictures of the specific car you wanted to model, as Curt pointed out, the 32 UTLX cars that Linde leased came from three previous lessee's, off numerous different build orders.
Still waiting for you to do one of the Essem 8 axle pressure cars that Union Carbide leased back in the 1960's. You have done some seriously nice cars.

Very nice work! My wife happened to be looking over my shoulder as I went to the photos and she said she can't believe it's a model.

Thanks for the repair Ed. Yes, I have the 3 OMI cars, 2 of the top walkway model. BTW, I'm finishing up the top walkway car. I had to scratch the 5 ladders and all those boxes, that was a trip! Thanks for all your kind words guys, they're much appreciated.
Bobby.
