Description

Fleischmann 6660145 N Acid Tank Car, DR, Era IV

Are you looking for a special car for transporting hazardous materials on your Era IV layout? With the Deutsche Reichsbahn acid pot car, Fleischmann brings an authentic specialty vehicle for transporting corrosive liquids to the N-gauge tracks—compact, detailed, and ready for operation!

A Specialist for Hazardous Materials

Acid pot cars were used specifically for transporting corrosive chemicals such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. They featured twelve ceramic pots mounted in a sturdy frame. This design was necessary because many metals would not have withstood the transport of corrosive liquids without sustained damage.

Model with a brakeman’s platform and authentic details

The Fleischmann car is equipped with a typically designed brakeman’s platform, as was still widely used by the DR during Era IV. The fine engravings, authentic lettering, and delicately rendered pots make this car a small highlight on any layout. Thanks to the NEM 355 coupler with close-coupling mechanism, the model can be easily integrated into freight trains.

Perfect for chemical trains and feeder traffic

With a length of just 55 mm, this car is ideal for compact operational layouts, industrial facilities, and transfer traffic. It looks particularly realistic behind typical DR diesel locomotives such as the BR 106 or BR 110—in mixed hazardous materials or factory trains.
