Yeah, that was going to be my next question about whether you intended to keep the tank wood or sheath it in metal. If wood, the most likely candidate in your era would be for a company shipping acids, such as a vinegar or pickling firm. 1/3
IIRC Heinz used coffin cars in your era, but there were a lot of other big firms in that business (Squire-Dingee, Lutz & Schramm, Claussen, etc.) that shipped vinegar. I don't see private cars registered for any of those companies in the 1901 ORER but you could "roll your own." 2/3
