MTH Premier 20-96003 CSX 8000 gallon tank Car
This RailKing model is a nicely detailed 8000 gallon tankcar lettered for CSX Transportation. The model includes sprung Rollerbearing style trucks. The model will be used for CSX MOW service on my layout. This model is any early version of the car. This car has been recently updated by MTH to include revised details.
Since this tank car carries a flammable liquid appropriate DOT "placard" details have been added to the model as shown.
Notes:
US DOT (U.S. Department of Transportation) definitions for hazmat placards used in transportation.
Title 49 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations (49CFR) also known as the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Regulations (FMCSR) requires the use hazardous materials placards when shipping hazardous materials cargo and dangerous goods in the United States.
