For several years this six dome tank car has sat on a shelf needing repairs and paint. A friend took care of that for me. This could have run on the Frisco. Don't know that one ever did, but it could have. The Gibson Wine Company was located in both Kentucky and California. The Kentucky location could have shipped, indirectly, via the Frisco. The model was manufactured by Thomas in Oklahoma many years ago. Not too many six dome tank cars have been done in O scale. Paul Moore
Nice! Years ago I had a yellow 6-dome t/c in HO. AHM I think. Changed the trucks and couplers and it looked fine. Don't know what happened to it - sold it I guess. K
The six dome tank cars were nearly always wine cars. However, some were converted to MOW use later in life. I've got a shot of a D&RGW six dome tank that says "water car" on the side. It would make a nice fictitious Frisco or QA&P MOW car!! I might try to find an HO car and convert it to Frisco MOW. Paul
I found this in my pile o'parts: Needs couplers and trucks. Says "Made in Austria" on the bottom, so possibly Roco for AHM?
Yes, that's the car, though mine was the same yellow but lettered for a winery. Pretty good detail for AHM Roco. Yes, Austrian. K
