Comments on: I came across this repurposed Procor Limited tank car while driving from 150 Mile House to Likely B.C. I did a search on the Canadian Freight Cars site and this is the only tank listed there with an 8398 Imp. Gal. capacity. If this is the one, it would have been #’d 18444, built late 50′s or very early 60′s. This location is 26 Km north of 150 Mile House at a road maintenance yard known as Pit #1888 – Skulow Lake. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

Fusion welding of tanks was approved in 1941 and an accepted practice mid decade. This may be an ex IOX tank car; Procor (then known as Products Tank Line) purchased the Imperial Oil tank car fleet in 1952.
