The Rivarossi HR6694 tank car, featuring the eye-catching red-and-black GATX design, brings contemporary rail freight transport to your layout in H0 scale—ideal for use in block trains or as part of mixed-freight formations from Era VI.

Modern tank car with an industrial look

The insulated, four-axle tank car is designed for transporting liquid, temperature-controlled materials—a common sight on Europe’s railways. The model features a red-and-black color scheme with the distinctive GATX logo—a combination that’s impressive both technically and visually.

Faithful reproduction with high-quality details

Rivarossi has taken care to accurately reproduce the tank structure, the walkways, and the lettering on this model. The color separation is precisely executed, giving the car a modern, industrial look. The proportions of the tank and the arrangement of the attachments are also exactly modeled after the prototype.
