In the late 1860s, the forerunner to the modern-day tank car was developed when a wooden underframe was placed below the first horizontal, cylindrical iron tanks. This HO scale model — a replica of this early-era unit operating with the U.S. Military Railroad — features a finely cast body, an authentic paint scheme and markings, a realistic top hatch, magnetically operated knuckle couplers, and RP25 metal wheels with added weight for smooth operation. Measures approximately 5½" long.
