Product description Suitable for the following scale(s): B ScaleGasolin took care of car care even in the event of breakdowns The gasoline colors were present on German roads until 1971, after which it was over - the major post-war brand was reflagged and went down in the Aral network. Until then, the Opel Blitz was one of the standard vehicles at the branch locations. And the tow truck, which WIKING has reduced by 87 times, was one of the most important helpers at many stations. Because Gasolin had made reliable car care a red and white flag - the comprehensive service beyond refueling made customers appreciate the gas station attendant. Gasolin was once an institution in the Federal Republic of Germany's gas station network. At least 3,500 stations had flagged the red and white brand identity at the end of the 1960s - a traditional fuel with a high level of sympathy and acceptance. The market strength resulted from the concentration of providers already in place, because as early as the 1950s, 800 blue and yellow NITAG stations had been rededicated in favor of the gasoline network. In 1971 the Gasolin brand had happened. All stations were integrated into the ARAL network within a few months. Only simply pasted over with a blue and white brand logo, a little later the gasoline colors disappeared forever.
