The Greenbrier 30500 Gallon Tank Car has been nicknamed “the tank car of the future” and is designed to comply with DOT117 standards. Approximately ⅓ of tank cars in North America transport flammables such as crude oil and ethanol, and for the longest time DOT111 was the standard regulation for such tank cars. Unfortunately these older cars had minimal protection for fittings and valves, and the National Transportation Safety Board noted that these cars had a high percentage of tank failure during accidents. After multiple tank car accidents throughout 2013-2014, it was clear that something would have to change. The DOT117 was introduced and came with an increased steel frame, thermal protection, and additional safety adjustments. These cars are being implemented on rail lines aggressively, so next time you’re at a railroad crossing, you might see one pass by.
KATO USA will be replicating this model in N-Scale based on the Greenbrier paint scheme. The model features brand new tooling and a robust construction that features all the essential details and piping throughout. The model is lightly weighted so you can easily create a long freight train without any worries of derailment or jumping the track. These tankers will be bundled in 8 packs for a MSRP of $160 dollars. This is a quick and easier way to build up your rolling stock collection instead of buying individual pieces
