Part #MTL-110010 N Scale Supply Price: $
This 56’ general service tank car was built by American Car and Foundry at Milton, Pennsylvania in June 1974 and was painted black with white lettering. Its class, DOT 111 A100, indicates it is rated for non-pressurized use with a safe maximum operating pressure of 100 psi. Developments in materials and manufacturing allowed this tanker to be constructed without an underframe. The bottom of the tank itself serves as the load bearing structure. Variations in this tank car are mostly internal, involving different types of insulation, lining and welding spec’s. Still in use today, these cars haul everything from fruit juice to weed killers.
