Product Description
14 Ton chemical tank wagons evolved from petroleum tank designs, built in the 1940s and 50s with welded barrels, rubber lined to resist the corrosive effects of the products carried and shaped to contain greater pressures.
Companies such as ICI, Associated Octel, BP Chemicals and Murgatroyds transported chemicals including liquid chlorine, hydrofluoric acid, liquified ammonia and fluorocarbons in these wagons.
The GWR had built 51 very similar four-wheel tank wagons between 1895 and 1911 for carrying oil, creosote and similar liquids for departmental use. These had basic top hatches with narrower top platforms and would be a straightforward conversion from these prints.
