PROTOTYPE INFORMATION from Athearn:
The North American Car Corporation designed and built these unique 8000 gallon "Beer Can" tank cars specifically for transporting smaller batches of various liquid commodities. Some customers couldn't handle or didn't need large shipments of the product. Several leasing companies rostered this car. These short, eye-catching models, were seen all through out the 1970's-1990's in assigned service.
Missy, Owen and I wish you a very Happy New Year as we welcome in the year 2017. Thanks so much for being the best customers that anyone could ask for as we worked our way through 2016. Together I hope we can make 2017 one of the best years ever. Warmest wishes and sincere thanks to you.
Sincerely,
Brian, Missy and Owen Marsh
