	A [[fluid wagon]] of molten iron represents more iron plates than a single [[cargo wagon]] can store. Even without [[productivity module]]s, 50,000 molten iron represents 7500 iron plates, nearly twice the storage of a cargo wagon (4000 iron plates). Additionally, even with legendary [[quality]] [[productivity module 3]]s, the 2000 iron ore that fills up a single cargo wagon would only generate 50,000 molten iron, the exact size of a fluid wagon.
