I guess I was thinking of a tank left from the Rio Grande days that hadn't been refurbished since prior to 1968. I can remember shooting pictures at Cresco in the 1980's I think and you could still read Rio Grande through the sagging tank bands.
I am not advocating letting them fall apart by any means...I would much rather see them restored so that they could be used(such as on the C&TS), or as a display, as I suspect Needleton will be.
find it amazing any are still around from the Rio Grande years, cause lord knows when Rio Grande last worked on them!!
