Finely detailed model with many add-on parts

The model features finely engraved bogies with three-point suspension, separately attached brake systems and spring assemblies, as well as an attached axle brake linkage. The brake shoes are precisely positioned in line with the wheels. Freestanding handrails add visual depth. The close-coupling mechanism facilitates use in realistic train formations. Length over buffers: 155 mm.

A Specialist for the Chemical Industry

The prototype was developed in the early 1940s for transporting acids—featuring a 10-chamber tank, 40 mm-thick insulation, and a heating system at the end opposite the handbrake. For safety reasons, the cars were filled and emptied exclusively from above. The 6-axle design also allowed for operation on light tracks even when loaded.

Private car with DB lettering

The car shown here, with the road number 21 80 006 1 512-8 [P], was registered as a private car with the Deutsche Bundesbahn. Such cars were used by large chemical companies to transport their products between different locations—an authentic prototype for industrial facilities, refineries, and transfer yards in your model world.

For Versatile Applications

Whether as a single car on transfer runs or as part of a complete tank car train—this model brings variety, history, and striking design to your H0 tracks. It looks particularly appealing when combined with other special-purpose cars from Era IV.

A true collector’s item with character
