PROTOTYPE
HISTORY
The Triple-Dome Tank Car is based upon a steel Freight
Railcar of the typical 1930's to 1970's era.
Actual prototypes examples of this type car, although
modernized, may still be in daily use by North American
railroads and also on display at some historical
railroads/museums.
Tank cars stand out from other rolling stock in a consist by their
appearance, functional versatility, and range in size.
Their round shape sets them apart from their rectangular
counterparts (i.e. Reefers, Box Cars, Stock Cars).
However, although their shape may be the minority in a consist,
tank cars make up for that with their functional
versatility. Being the only car that can carry materials
in a gaseous, liquid, or semi-liquid form, tank cars are
called in to handle such things as hydrogen, chlorine,
acids, alcohols, molasses, fish oils, and juice!
Tank Cars come in a variety of lengths and volume capacity, making
them a workhorse of the rails!
