Description

The Taki 43000 is a Japanese gasoline tank wagon introduced in 1967. More than 500 were built, and the type has remained a familiar sight on oil traffic across Japan.

This HO gauge model represents the blue Taki 43000, suitable for recreating JNR and JR-era freight formations. It can be run with other KATO HO freight wagons and diesel or electric locomotives from the same period.
