Basis[]
In the Model Series, these tankers were a freelance design. The design appears to be an amalgamation of a standard 14 ton fuel tank wagon, GWR 8 ton Creosote tank wagon, and 22 ton beer tank wagon.
In the CGI Series, these tankers are solely based on a standard 14 ton pre-war tankers common across most British regions.
