Yep. Tate & Lyle Corn Syrup. Find it at your grocer's next to Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream.  :facepalm:

Apparently a British competitor to ADM, dealing in refined agricultural products. Best known brand is Splenda.

We see these Tate & Lyle cars through here every day on NS. From where to where, I have no clue.

There's a sweetener mill in Morrisville, Pa., https://goo.gl/maps/oEXqTzs32Sy (no idea why Google thinks it's a lawyer). A quick Google search shows a bunch more in the US.,

Also seen as Tate and Lyle Staley...

Yep. Staley is a U.S. subsidiary. Didn't think about that, but it makes sense why we frequently see the cars - Staley's biggest operation (and corp HQ) is just a few miles up-state. The plant is quite large.

A familiar name to those who have 1960s Matchbox cars and trucks.

Apparently, Tate & Lyle acquired Staley in 1988.

Sometimes those Atlas cars can demand a high price.  Apparently they are harder to come by
