Peco N NR-P179 Lobitos Oil Tank Wagon

Lobitos, an independant oil refiner, operated a small fleet of oil tank wagons in this unusual blue livery.

While regulations dictated volatile class A products like petrol were carried in light stone or silver coloured tanks regulations for wagons carrying less volatile oil products like heavy fuel oil, lubricating oil and electrical oils were less restrictive. Frequently owners applied low-maintenance black, but some chose more colourful advertising liveries.
