Would you like to expand your N-gauge fleet with an exceptionally designed Era VI chemical tank car? The Piko 40723 N “Bergsteiger” CH-Wasco chemical tank car combines the typical design of a four-axle chemical tank car with the distinctive Wascosa “Gemeinsam ans Ziel” design. As a new fall release for 2026, this 1:160 scale model makes a striking impression, particularly with its detailed construction, matte tank, and crisp, high-contrast decals.
A key feature of the Piko 40723 is the design of the tank. The model features the lovingly crafted Wascosa design “Together to the Goal,” which gives the chemical tank car its unique character. Combined with the matte tank, this creates a distinctive look that makes the car stand out clearly.
The crisply contoured printing enhances the clear presentation of the design and ensures that the model’s design is shown to its best advantage. As a result, the car is aimed at model railroaders who, in addition to technical accuracy, value eye-catching and distinctive vehicle liveries for their N-gauge collection.
The four-axle chemical tank car is equipped with freestanding ladders and handrails. These separately molded details emphasize the intricate design of the 1:160-scale model and complement the tank’s distinctive livery.
It is precisely the combination of freestanding ladders, handrails, and the sharply contoured decals that defines the overall impression of the Piko 40723. Despite the compact size of N gauge, there are several clearly rendered details that make this chemical tank car an interesting addition to a modern fleet.
In addition to its visual design, the Piko 40723 is specified to have excellent running characteristics. These ensure smooth operation of the car and are a particularly important factor for model railroading, especially when forming longer train formations.
The specified minimum curve radius is 192 mm. The length over buffers is 103 mm. This provides the essential dimensions needed for planning its use on an N-gauge layout. The coupler used is an NEM shaft in combination with a close-coupling mechanism.
The Piko 40723 is classified as Era VI and is listed under the “Private Railway” railway administration. This allows the model to be specifically integrated into a modern rolling stock fleet assembled accordingly. The four-axle configuration, the Wascosa design, and the detailed attachments are the defining features of this new fall 2026 release.
Thanks to its unique design, the car is suitable both as a standalone addition to an existing train and as an eye-catching vehicle within a more extensive N-gauge collection. The “Together to the Goal” design visually sets the chemical tank car apart and combines the modern Era VI with a distinctive aesthetic.
With the Piko 40723, model railroaders receive a four-axle chemical tank car in 1:160 scale, featuring special printing combined with fine details and excellent running characteristics. Freestanding ladders and handrails, the matte tank, and the Wascosa “Together to the Goal” design are the most important visual features of this new release.
Add the Piko 40723 “Bergsteiger” chemical tank car to your N-gauge collection and bring this fall 2026 release, featuring its distinctive Wascosa design, to your layout.
