58984 Piko 4-axle  Tank Car Type Zacns "Esso" of the FS

Novelty 2021 - 4-axle  Tank Car Type Zacns "Esso" of the FS

At the beginning of the nineties, the first tankers with a so-called “kink boiler” were built. The boiler was constructed in such a way that the two halves of the boiler incline by 3 ° towards the center. This is why the contents of the boiler, mainly mineral oil products, flow off almost completely without any further aids. Since the lightweight steel vehicles are suitable for higher speeds, they were soon also procured by other companies across Europe. These wagons can be found as P (= private) wagons in the inventory of all European railway companies, including czech.
