Details

Add a modern heavy freight specialist to your layout with this PIKO 2026 novelty compressed gas tank wagon, representing a Wascosa-operated four-axle pressure gas wagon in Era VI, decorated in the distinctive “Schröder & Klaus” design scheme. This model depicts contemporary European dangerous goods transport, commonly used in industrial gas logistics across the modern rail network.

The prototype is a four-axle compressed gas tank wagon without sunroof, designed for the safe transport of pressurised gases in dedicated tank containers. It reflects today’s highly regulated freight operations, where safety, efficiency, and standardised wagon design are essential for international rail logistics.

PIKO has faithfully reproduced this modern wagon in HO scale with clean, prototype-accurate paintwork, sharp printing, and finely moulded tank detailing. The model captures the industrial character of modern Wascosa rolling stock, making it a strong addition to contemporary freight consists or dedicated chemical and gas trains.

Built for reliable operation, the wagon delivers excellent running characteristics with smooth-rolling wheelsets for consistent performance across layouts of all sizes. A NEM coupling pocket with close coupling mechanism ensures straightforward integration into existing HO scale freight stock.
