Thank you kind sir.
Those are Crapumates.  I've since replaced them with 1015's.  While not much smaller, they are reliable during ops.
Compromises must be made.  Just like having to move to slut gauge to have better sound.   :trollface:

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

I finished up another custom tank car. I had a few of the bare shells, I added GMM details to, painted, decaled, weathered, added TrainWorx body mounted couplers, MY trucks and FVM metal wheels. I decaled it for one I photographed on my prototype. I teed to weather it up a little more under the ladders, but I'll save that for a rainy day.

To stay with the tank car theme, I did some Hydrogen Peroxide cars after @Blazeman had sent me some photos of cars from one of the plants he manages.

Also did another one for vegetable oil service
