Description

Are you looking for an international silo car for your TT layout in Era V?

With the Tillig 15863 TT Uacs Dust Silo Car from Novácké chemické závody a.s., you’ll get a highly detailed model of a typical tank car used for transporting chemicals. This car represents cross-border freight transport from Era V and brings the atmosphere of everyday international rail traffic from the 1990s and early 2000s directly to your 1:120 scale model railroad.

Based on real chemical freight transport in Central Europe

The Uacs car was used by Novácké chemické závody a.s., a major chemical company in Slovakia, to transport powdered products such as lime, soda, or basic chemical raw materials. Such cars were regularly in international service on routes between Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria, and Germany.

Detailed TT model with country-specific design

The Tillig model features an exact replica of the silo compartments, exquisite printing with the Novácké chemické závody company address, and the typical color scheme of Era V. Particularly striking are the precisely rendered maintenance instructions, hazardous materials labels, and technical markings, which make the model a highlight on your TT layout.

Scale and Technical Details

The silo car is built to TT scale (1:120) and runs on a 12 mm gauge. With an impressive length over buffers of 120 mm, it ranks among the longer TT cars and ensures realistic train formations. Thanks to its NEM coupler mount and close-coupling mechanism, the car can be easily integrated into international freight trains and impresses with its excellent running characteristics.

Ideal for Era V freight trains with an international flair

Whether as part of an international chemical train or combined with freight cars from Germany, the Czech Republic, and Austria—this UACS brings authentic Era V operations to your model railroad layout. It pairs particularly well with modern diesel or electric locomotives such as the BR 232, BR 189, or the Czech Class 363.
