Standard Oil Company Road Number AMOX 9758
This 39' single dome tank car is painted black with red, white and blue logo and white lettering. It was built in November 1910, serviced in February 1928, and runs on Bettendorf trucks. Established in 1870, Standard Oil operated as a major company trust and was one of the world’s first and largest multinational corporations until it was broken up by the United States Supreme Court in 1911. Two of these companies were Jersey Standard (Standard Oil Company of New Jersey), which eventually became Exxon, and Socony (Standard Oil Company of New York), which eventually became Mobil. Other Standard Oil breakup companies include Standard Oil of Ohio which became SOHIO, Standard Oil of Indiana which became Amoco. After other mergers and a name change in the 1980s, Standard Oil of California became the Chevron Corporation.
