The 20 ton tank joined the Hornby range in 1997 and since then there have been sixteen versions of it including several number variations. The current model, however, is only the second version in this particular livery, the previous version arriving last year. So, here we have just a number change from the original '339' to '341'. The wagon would have been used in wartime for the transportation of ammonia for the production of explosives.
