Here is a Lionel 17983 GATX Tank Train (3 pk.). First built in the 1970s, the TankTrain system provided a faster, more economical way to load and unload unit trains of tank cars. Strings of these cars were connected with hoses and valves. Rather than handling each car individually, a crew could load or unload the entire string from one end of the train. Like our other Standard O rolling stock, these tank cars feature prototypical detailing and feature many separately applied metal details, including flexible hoses between the cars. These new TankTrain cars are a perfect addition to the TankTrain set. Additional features for these cars include rotating bearing caps on trucks, a unique road number on each tank car, diecast metal sprung trucks, diecast metal operating knuckle couplers, metal wheels and axles. Each tank car measures 15 1/2 inches long and operates on a minimum O-31 curve.
