GATC History

The GATC Tank Cars, integral to American railroading from the early to modern diesel locomotive era, were first built in 1949 by the General American Transportation Corp. for several railroads and saw variations and service expansions through the mid-1990s.

These cars, known for transporting petroleum products, underwent modifications for specialized services over the years.

Roka's model captures this rich history with prototypical accuracy and detail, offering these models in various railroad-specific liveries and configurations for the first time

Great looking tanker

I’ve never seen an image of the prototype, but the previous ATSF tanker models I have from Roka were faithful copies of the prototype, so I am sure this one is, too. The detail is great, even the data with the smallest print is legible, and the turning axles are the cherry on the pie.
