66 m3 “ANF” Uahs tank wagon
UIC number | Revision date |
21 87 007 8 401-8 P | 18.9.78 |
66 g (NEM: 56 to 73 g).
Very fine engraving, except the ladder — plastic — which seems less fine than for the previous wagons, probably because it is more visible. Photo-etched platforms and steps. Spring buffers but the buffer beams tend to fall down. Bogies Y23.
The wagon is lower (about 0.4 mm) on the gateway side. Difficult to correct because the bearing is spherical. Or it would be necessary to trim the opposite bogie bearing.
See the Loco-Revue Forum.
12.40 m long tank wagons built in the 1960s by the Ateliers du Nord de la France (ANF).
Note: the tank wagons received the series letter Z after the modification of the UIC numbering in 1980. But, previously, they entered in the “catch-all” series U. To distinguish under this letter of the very varied types (liquid or gas tanks, cereals hoppers, cement silos, etc.), a subscript letter was used, namely h for tanks, which gave Uh for a 2-axle tank and Uah for a bogie tank.
