I thought sure you would know the proper name for these. UFCDs--- Unused
Fuel Containment Devices. Just thought I would help you out! Reminds me of
the time NS tried to refuel hopper trains at Vicker to relieve congestion in
Roanoke. Nothing to contain fuel, unused or overflow!

I forgot to remind you to check out the two "swimming pools" to catch the
fuel overflow, Heaven forbid if there is any, in this photo:
