The Rapido Trains HO Scale Union Tank Line X-3 8,000-Gallon Tank Car is based on cars delivered beginning in 1920s and in use into the 1970s. The Union Tank Car (UTLX) X-3 design was an important car that operated in all corners of North America. X-3 cars were built in various capacities and configurations, including 6,500-gallon, 8,000-gallon and 12,000-gallon tanks. They were also built with single, double and triple compartments. This detailed model is based on the numerous general service 8,000-gallon cars, including cars modified in the 1920s and 1930s through the addition of insulation and jacketing, and perhaps the most unusual X-3 variants: the "breadbox" cars which hauled transformer The Rapido model is offered in distinct versions for pre-1953 K-brake equipped cars and 1940s and later AB-brake equipped cars.
