Pressure version of the articulated tank car "RYKO" in the version of epoch VI. At the beginning of the nineties, the first tank trucks were built with a so-called "kink boiler". The boiler was designed in such a way that the two boiler halves incline towards the middle by 3 ° each. Therefore, the boiler contents, mainly mineral oil products, flows off almost completely without further aids. Because the lightweight steel-built vehicles are capable of higher speeds, they were soon sourced from other companies throughout Europe. These wagons can be found as P (= private) cars in the inventory of all European railway companies.
