HO 40' Single Dome Car Warren Petroleum Co. #5030 (BAC17806)

The HO 40' Single Dome Car Warren Petroleum Co. #5030 is designed to haul a wide variety of liquid loads, making it an essential addition to any model freight railroad. These tank cars have played a crucial role in freight transport since the early days, moving vital commodities such as water and oil.

Representing some of the last cars built with a riveted tank design, this model is historically significant as it was delivered between the late 1920s and early 1940s, prior to the widespread adoption of welded construction. It captures the essence of these cars during their heyday serving private owners and showcases their later use as maintenance-of-way service cars, supplying water for operations on Class I railroads, with some remaining in use well into the 21st century.

The Bachmann Single-Dome Tank Car features a prototypical and detailed body design, blackened metal wheels, and body-mounted E-Z Mate couplers for smooth operation. Additionally, it includes separately applied ladders and metal wrap-around grab irons, enhancing its realistic appearance and functionality.
