Details

Expand your modern freight fleet with this highly detailed TT:120 scale TTA tank wagon, now available in a striking Procor/Amoco grey livery. Based on the acclaimed OO gauge tooling, this model delivers exceptional levels of detail, making it a standout addition to any contemporary model railway layout.

TTA tank wagons were widely used across the UK for transporting petroleum products, often operating in long block trains or mixed consists. This example, No.57502, represents a wagon from the period when Procor UK Ltd took over BRT operations in the 1980s, retaining earlier markings while introducing new branding. The result is a highly authentic transitional-era livery, complete with original BRT decals and updated Procor/Amoco branding.

Expertly finished with accurate colours and a wide range of printed safety markings, this wagon captures the busy, industrial look of modern freight operations. It is ideal for running alongside diesel locomotives such as the British Rail Class 37 and British Rail Class 66, or mixing with other TTA tankers to create realistic fuel trains.

TTA tank wagons formed a core part of Britain’s petroleum rail logistics, with large fleets owned by companies such as BRT and leased to major oil firms. This example reflects the period following Procor UK Ltd’s takeover of BRT operations in the 1980s, when wagons began to carry updated branding while still showing traces of their previous ownership.

Amoco, originally founded in 1889 as Standard Oil in Chicago, was a major international oil company and later became part of BP in 1998. Wagons like this played a vital role in distributing fuel across the UK rail network.
