Manufacturer description

This 20T tank wagon features the livery of Cosco Products and would be based at Bromborough Port in Cheshire. This example is typical of the tank wagon traffic that would be found on British railways in the 20th century.

Tank wagons were divided into class A and Class B with the less common Class A wagons being built to contain more volatile substances. Prototypically, this wagon would be found in the late 1930s.
