The prototype - ESSO as a symbol of energy supply

ESSO AG, part of the Exxon Mobil Corporation, was a leader in the field of energy supply in Germany. Its tank wagons transported fuels, lubricants and other petroleum products on a large scale.

With a length of 74 mm over the buffers, the car is perfectly suited for use in mixed freight trains.

Typical applications

This tank wagon can be used in a variety of ways, for example in trains that connect refineries with tank depots or distribution centers. It also cuts an excellent figure at railroad stations and in industrial plants, as it realistically represents the mineral oil-based freight traffic of Era IV.
