Good afternoon gents, Well what can i say....i come in from work and you lot have been busy. The link to LTSV site is useful for me, not only for these wagons but many different ones. Good stuff.

Very useful links there making some interesting reading. I actually thought most if not all crude oil went directly to refineries by pipeline or ship. Anyway i'll keep you no longer on the subject, Your help has been great and most welcome. Thank you once more. Terry.

Oh...now you've thrown a spanner in the works. Is there a reason why they're not mixed..? 2 different products possibly..?

Hello, Thanks very much for the photo's, lots of nice weathering detail on those, especially like the third one with the mill type building in the background. Anyway i had another look at what i have and the majority of them are Shell, BP or Shell BP branded, so i'll repaint the odd ones into leasing wagons, shouldn't be too big of a job even for someone like me to paint them grey whilst saving the tops panel (famous last words !!). I'll get 2 or 3 rakes out of them either way, then they need a nice mucky weathering job, so it would appear. Thanks once more for sharing your knowledge and photo's. Terry.

Sorry, completely forgot to mention era. The layout is based around mid eighties kind of time frame just before BR was split into sectors.

Good afternoon all. I've been sorting through my collection of 100 tonne TEA bogie tank wagons, 23 in total, and a thought occurred to me....would these be run in rakes of wagons all with the same company branding or was it a case of "oh, there's an empty tank, we'll use that". I'm also aware that certain fuel / petroleum companies are linked such as Shell and BP, but which others are part of a larger group please..? I've looked on Google and there seems to be a few rakes with unbranded and branded wagons mixed, maybe the unbranded are pool wagons..? The wagons i have already are BP, Shell BP, Fina, Gulf and Total, yes i know i should have considered the above before gathering all these together, but hey what's done is done. I did consider repainting some of the more uncommon tanks into unbranded pool vehicles but wanted to check here before wielding the paint. Any advice on this is much appreciated. Thanks. Terry.

Thanks for the tip Barry. -
Hello Barry, Just had a read through this and was wondering, because i've never used inks, powders or the two combined.....does this seal with a coat of matt varnish ? or does the ink make it pretty much permanent anyway please ? Thanks Terry.
