Tank Car Notes
Received an email from Steve Rademacher on the tank car identification. He says that of the 20 or so Model Power tank cars that he owns, they all have a small raised oval on the underside of the center sill. The Marx cars don't have this oval. Some of the Marx cars have a number that looks like it has been scratched on the plastic.

This shows the underside of the Marx frame on the left and the Model Power frame on the right. Note the small raised oval on the middle section of the Model Power frame and the scratched number on the Marx frame.

Another photo showing the raised oval on the Model Power car.
