Acknowledged history of the Union Tank Car Company. https://www.utlx.com/utlx-history, "The History of the Union Tank Car Company"
Originally, they company's website included an informative, honest, and straight-forward on-line history of the Rockerfeller years.  Unfortunately, this history has been watered down in recent years, and details of the dark years have been deleted.
Carr, Albert Z. , "John D.Rockerfeller's Secret Weapon," New York: McGraw-Hill Book, 1962
This is a excellant book about the history and the power of the Standard Oil Trust.  It descibes the use of the Union Tank Car as the means by which power was maintained over competing oil companies -- often with the government being duped into helping.
The History of the Standard Oil Company Tarbell, Ida M., "The History of the Standard Oil Company," New York: Phillips & Company, 1904
