Hi,
I am searching for a 40's and 50's prototype photos. of varying, (mixed), sized, (diameter, length and height), tank cars in the same train consist, I believe, before safety rules were enforced, they were transported as such.
On the Inter-Net, I find photos. of newer, almost same sized, tank cars.
Thank you,
Ralph

You may want to seek out the November 2005 Model Railroader for their "Pipeline on Rails" article.
Or, the Library of Congress photo archive.
