Product Description
Anchor mounted tank wagons were introduced in 1942. The design took advantage of improvements in welding to simplify the attachment of a tank to a wagon chassis without the need for end stanchions, steel ropes or bracing rods. The design was still being produced into the 1960's.
Three designs dominated this type of wagon:
All 3 designs were initially mounted on a standard 17 foot 6 inch, 10 foot wheelbase steel chassis. Later 20 ton examples, including some chemical ferry wagons, used a 12 or 15 foot wheelbase chassis.
Examples of these wagons can be viewed on Paul Bartlett's Wagon site.
NOTES
