Are there Articulated Oil Tank Cars?

With the significant growth in oil being shipped by tank cars, are there any articulated tanker car sets on the railroads today similar to the intermodal container articulated sets (ranging from 3-5 cars)?

Since oil shipments are point to point and more unit trains, would this be an option to reduce gross weight and be able to carry more tonnage?

Any thoughts?
