This is a split side, welded tank car used for the transportation of diesel fuel. It was originally built for the navy as USAX 10318, but transferred to the Air Force and moved to Hill Air Force Base, where its reporting mark was changed to DODX. Donated as a batch with the other rail equipment. It was built by General American Tank Car Co. which began as German American Tank Car Company in 1898. However anti-German excitement during World War I caused the name change in 1916. The company began as a private car owner to lease cars to railroads, but soon specialized in constructing tank cars for both sale and leasing.The company is still based out of Chicago, although since 1933 it is now General American Transportation as it leases not only rail equipment but aircraft, mining equipment and marine vehicles. |
