Ideal for modellers building a detailed OO gauge layout or collectors of British railway rolling stock seeking an Era 8 Esso TTA tanker wagon.

Why this model matters

The TTA tanker was one of the most numerous tanker wagon types seen on British railways, with thousands built during the 1960s and 1970s. Primarily used for petrochemical products, these wagons became a familiar sight in heavy block trains. Hornby's model represents Esso 56046 in Era 8, with the tooling newly produced for 2023.

How to use it

Place the wagon on compatible OO gauge track and couple it to suitable rolling stock using its NEM tension lock couplings. The specified minimum curve is Radius 2 (438mm). Keep the track and wheel surfaces clean, check the couplings before operation, and store the detailed scale model safely when not in use.
