ABSTRACT:
A transportable spill containment pan includes a reservoir that can be disposed between, and rested upon, conventional railroad rails beneath a stationary railroad tank car. The pan includes a pair of flaps that can be moved from a closed position where they overlie the reservoir and provide a cover therefor, to an extended position where they divert inadvertent spills into the reservoir. A pair of parallel, spaced tubes extend across the reservoir and through opposed sidewalls defining the reservoir. The tubes are of a size and shape to receive the forks of a conventional forklift truck, thereby permitting the pan to be moved conveniently from place to place. The pan includes endwalls connected to the flaps, the endwalls having horizontal ledges that enable another pan to be stacked atop the first.
