TEL was used as an anti-knock gasoline compound until the mid 70s.They always knew it was dangerous, but finally outlawed it

except in aircraft gasoline.

I love the big multi wheel cars, nice!
My favourites however are still the “beer can” shorties, maybe because they make a short train look longer.

I don't see where they're scratched though.

Not scratched? What do you mean?

I think they’re waiting for you to say scratch built, not scratched as in cat scratch fever.
Although I do have a couple locos that were scratched.
Beautiful car either way!
