Stored Oil Tank wagons

They used standard trailer markings for the sides yellow / green and for the rear red both come in right/ left as used on HGV's in Ireland. -
They arrived in Ireland in mid 1979 going into service soon afterwards they last ran in revenue earning service in Dec 2009 so about 30 years . Hope we see a model of them from IRM at some stage .

Allegedly the ESSO wagons being imported from the UK in the early 1970's came complete with overhead wire warning plates thus being the first rolling stock in Ireland to carry them even though we didnt get our first overhead wires until 1981! -
