Specific Item Information: Pressure gas tank wagon "KOSAN" type Zags hired out to the Danish State Railways.
Pressurized gas tank wagons are special vehicles for liquefied, refrigerated or dissolved gases. The loading and unloading take place via devices that can be operated from the ground (bottom discharge). The eye-catching, about 30 cm high, orange longitudinal stripe in the center of the tank, is characteristic for the European wagons.
For a long time, these wagons operated exclusively as private wagons and were hired by national railway authorities [P]. In the meantime, in contrast to other types of wagons, they are owned by specialized wagon hire companies. The complex wagon fleet management includes maintenance, inspection and more.

Road Name History: DSB, an abbreviation of Danske Statsbaner (Danish State Railways), is the largest Danish train operating company, and the largest in Scandinavia. While DSB is responsible for passenger train operation on most of the Danish railways, goods transport and railway maintenance are outside its scope. DSB runs a commuter rail system, called the S-train, in the area around the Danish capital, Copenhagen, that connects the different areas and suburbs in the greater metropolitan area. DSB used to operate some trains in Sweden, but has since August 2017 lost all their contracts.
DSB was founded in 1885 when the state-owned companies De jysk-fynske Statsbaner and De sjællandske Statsbaner merged.
