In the early 1940s, 6-axle tank cars were built for the transport of acids and chemicals due to increasing demand from the armament industry and other transports. The tank was a 10-shot welded construction and had 40 mm insulation and a heater with connections at the non-hand brake end. A transition platform with brakeman's cab was fitted at the handbrake end. With a capacity of just under 40 cubic metres, the boiler was comparatively small. However, due to the distribution over six axles, the average axle load was quite low and the wagons could also be used fully loaded on lines with lighter superstructure. The boilers could only be filled and emptied from above, as bottom valves were not permitted on wagons for acid transport in the past.

The model should be moved at least on the radius R72 due to its 3-axle bogies.
