air tanks can be found at Keil-LIne, PSC, Red Caboose Geep parts trees and from Plastruct end cap, cylinder halfs and tube. Research the length and diameter and go hunting.
PRR Man: Thanks for the help! I now have found that the part that I need is - OSA1020, 12 Ft GP Rooftop Air Tank EMD 1st Generation Geep Torpedo Tube Air Tank. Does anyone know where I can find this part. P&D does not have it in stock. nw2124

One reference I have seen stated the dimensions of the tanks as 12'0" long by 12" in diameter. If this is correct than this matches the size of the gp60 air tank offered as a separate part from Atlas. $1.50 each. You may need to add a bit of detail to them. Also they do not appear to be completely round, but rather have a flat or a cavity on the back side. Perhaps they could be oriented to disguise this issue?

You might try contacting MTH or Atlas as well. I know for sure that MTH has produced the GP with the roof top torpedo tanks.
