TEA bogie tank car in BP version

The tank car impresses with its highly detailed design, featuring an accurate tank shape, neatly reproduced sheet metal seams, and numerous separately applied parts. The finely detailed undercarriage and the etched metal walkways on the tank roof create a particularly striking appearance when the car is part of a freight train formation.

Thanks to the kinematic NEM coupler system, the car is ready for use on TT:120 layouts. The specified minimum radius is the second radius, which means the model can also be used on more compact layouts.

Based on British oil trains

The 100/102-metric-ton bogie tank cars were built in large numbers and initially leased to private oil companies. They were used to transport large quantities of liquid raw materials and were a familiar sight in British rail freight traffic for many years.

In addition to the original manufacturers of the 1960s, additional cars were produced by Marcroft Engineering, Powell-Duffryn, and Greenbrier Europe. Get the Hornby TT6088 TT BP TEA Tanker BP BPO87192 tank car and add a distinctive British tank car for oil and heavy-haul freight trains to your TT:120 layout.
