Tank Cars

There are many types of tank cars. Some are insulated, some are pressurized, and some are designed to carry hazardous materials. The most common type of tank car is the general service car, which is used to carry non-hazardous materials. Most of my tank cars are made by American Models although there are a few others mixed in.

Notes

  1. Image Notes
    • Click on the image to see a larger view.
    • Items without an image are new arrivals and have not yet been put in service.
  2. Manufacturer Notes
    • If the manufacturer is in red, you can click to go to the manufacturers page for that car.
    • Many cars I have are out of production, so cars from Pacific Rail Shops and S-Helper Service will not have links.
  3. Paint Notes
    • Factory: Factory painted models are those that have been painted by the manufacturer.
    • Custom: Custom painted models are those that have been painted by an individual or a third-party service to achieve a unique or specific appearance.
    • Relettered: Relettered models are those that have had their road name and number changed to reflect a different railroad or specific identification.
    • Renumbered: Renumbered models are those that have had only their road number changed while retaining the original road name and other details.
