Details

Add classic German freight realism to your garden railway with this PIKO G Scale 2-axle tank wagon, representing a Deutsche Bundesbahn Era IV freight vehicle. This model depicts the standard DB chemical and mineral oil tank wagon widely used across West Germany during the 1970s and 1980s.

The prototype wagon was used for the transport of liquids such as mineral oils and industrial chemicals, forming an essential part of DB freight operations. Its simple two-axle design made it a versatile and widely used wagon type across both regional and mainline freight services.

PIKO has faithfully reproduced this wagon in large G Scale format, designed specifically for garden railway operation. The model features a finely detailed cylindrical tank body, prototypical fittings, and authentic DB Era IV lettering, capturing the appearance of everyday freight stock of the period.

Built for durability, the wagon is engineered for outdoor and indoor garden railway use, with a robust construction and excellent running characteristics suitable for long freight trains. Its solid design ensures reliable operation across large-radius G Gauge layouts.
