As ethanol production and shale oil production have boomed, the need to transport these products and other by rail has led to the production of huge numbers of new tank cars. These 30,145 gallon cars built by Trinity in the 2000's are a common site in many of these trains. They can be seen in huge unit trains, as well as in singles and small cuts in mixed freights.
