Description: taki1000, the newest JR tank car design, began service in 1993..the frame-less design supplanted the taki 43000 on heavily traveled routes to enable larger payloads and higher operating speeds; in japan, the jr freight service uses the right of way of the ubiquitous passenger commuter and express lines and must operate at the same speeds to minimize interference in passenger operations. with the advent of the taki1000, 45 tons of petroleum based products could be transported at a 95 kph top speed. 932 cars have been produced since 1993, primarily by nippon sharyo and kawasaki heavy industries....tank car unit trains are a recurring sight on japanese rail lines. i acquired this wagon as part of a multi item freight wagon purchase from a large hobby reseller in japan who declines to offer model evaluations.....imagine my elation when the entire group arrived in "beautiful goods", like new condition...... .......the livery represents the Japan Oil Transportation Co, Ltd........
