This 39’ single dome tank car is painted black with white Sun Oils logo and white lettering. It was built by American Car & Foundry in Milton, PA, and runs on Bettendorf trucks. It was leased to Sun Oil and used the Delaware River & Union Railroad reporting marks until the dissolution of that railroad in the late 1930s. Sun Oil got its start on March 27, 1886, when Joseph Newton Pew and Edward O. Emerson, partners in The Peoples Natural Gas Company of Pittsburgh, PA, madea move to diversify their company. Within a few years the company had acquired pipelines, leases, storage tanks andmore to emerge as one of Ohio’s leading suppliers of crude oil.
