Now with the outdated DOT111A tanks, a huge push has been coming to upgrade the fleet to modern spec. Assuming the rumors I heard a year ago were about this company (Which I will in this regard), than there may be more truth to this than we think. If they already have a CAD design they are promoting, one would assume that they've had it for a while and it is stamped by a PE.
There is a place in Plaistow NH that makes tanks , big tanks, and advertises about making RR tank cars :
