In the classic design of the Austrian Mineral Oil Administration (ÖMV), this model brings the typical freight traffic of the post-war period to your H0 model railroad layout.

The ÖMV tank car: A workhorse of freight transportation

In Era III, tank wagons were indispensable means of transportation for liquid goods such as mineral oil products. The ÖMV wagons, with their clear and functional design, were a common sight on the ÖBB rails. This model faithfully reflects the practical design and the characteristic paintwork.

Replacement wheel sets available for AC operation

The wagon can be retrofitted with exchange wheel sets for AC operation (item number: 56061), allowing it to be used flexibly in different systems. The coupling is NEM shaft compatible, but without a close coupling link.

Excellent running characteristics

The excellent running characteristics of the model guarantee smooth operation even on demanding track systems. With a minimum radius of 358 mm, the tank wagon is suitable for a variety of layouts, both in large and compact layouts.
