Historical Details
The Bogied Kitegas tanker is based on a Shell tanker which was built somewhere in the late 1940s to early 1950s. The tank had a metal sunroof on top, protecting it from heating up too much in the sun. The tank itself was connected to the frame using steel belts. The tanker was mostly used for the transport propane or butane from refineries to cental collection hubs.
