Heljan OO 1111 United Molasses UM252/48053 Class B Oil Tank Wagon Brown with Blue Barrel Ends

Heljan OO Gauge B Tank 1111 UNITED MOLASSES UM252 / 48053 (brown with blue barrel ends)

New item listed By Heljan for 2016 release.
Details to be advised.

We anticipate these being models of the 35-ton glw (approx. 22 tons payload) oil tank wagons introduced around 1960, following on from Heljans' models of these wagons in O gauge.
The 35-ton glw wagons were equiped with suspension and vacuum train brakes suitable for running at higher speeds than the older 12-ton 4-wheel tank wagons, allowing block oil trains to travel safely at increased speeds.
