Due to the uniqueness of such a test, which to the knowledge of the authors had never before been performed in this manner in Germany or in Europe as a whole, the Saxon State Ministry agreed to provide in addition to the railway tank car a Castor of the type THTR/AVR (without this having been part of the original project), which was also to be subjected to a fire. This report only deals with the test results of the Castor container where they are relevant to the overall project. A detailed evaluation of the effects on the Castor container will be carried out by the BAM (Specialist Group III.3 "Safety of tanks for transport and storage").
