Compressed gas tank wagons are special wagons for liquefied, deep-frozen liquefied or dissolved gases. Loading and unloading takes place via devices that can be operated from the ground (bottom discharge). The conspicuous, approx. 30 cm high orange vertical stripe in the middle of the boiler is typical for European cars.

For a long time, these wagons only ran as private wagons [P] registered with the national railway administrations. In contrast to other types of wagons, they are now owned by specialized wagon hire companies. The complex management includes the maintenance, inspection, etc., of the fleet.
