Excelsior Refineries Ltd. (7/1949-4/1960)
Canadian Kodiak Refineries Ltd. (7/1960-4/1961)

Background

Offices were located in Lloydminster, AB. Most, if not all, cars seem to have been acquired used from an unknown source. In 7/1960 the company was renamed and cars were transferred to CKRX reporting marks, which was completed with the elimination of the ERX reporting marks in 7/1961 (interestingly, the 11/1970 Tank Car Capacities volume listed these cars with ERX reporting marks, despite the fleet's disappearance from the ORERs in 1963). Reporting mark appears to have been added 7/1949.

Data has been taken from the following ORERs (MM/YY): 7/1949-4/1961.
