Folks,
It seems that there is a growing club of narrow gauge rescued tanks. The WW&F Museum in maine has one of the tanks from the Bridgton & Saco tank cars that was at Edaville for many years. The wooden flat car rotted away.

Looking at the tank car chapter in Robert Sloan's book on freight cars; there seems to be enough information to re-construct the flat car.

If you count the two Uintah railway iron water tanks that are also in museums; there is a growing ability to show narrow gauge tank cars.
