MTH Pennsylvania Tank Car MT-7300? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

SanDiegoMarkOGR Forum Member

This tank is marked on the bottom of the frame as an MTH product. I cannot find it on the MTH web site. I see them on eBay, listed as MT-7300. I don't recognize the product number as the numbers on the web site are 20-, 30- etc. Maybe this pre-dates that numbering scheme. Maybe I'm just not seeing the product number on the web page. Can anyone help me find out some history of this tank car?

The MT was used before they went to the 20- and 30- prefixes. From all the stuff I see, it's certainly a Railking model.

GRJ is spot on. Don’t know if it was ever sold as open stock, but it was/is part of an MTH direct to consumer set #005, which I bought in 1995.
