This Gas tank should have a Hydraulic Test to 600psi. This assumes a worst case scenario of using Propane in the tank. This can be done at a Model Engineering Society, who will have the correct Equipment. They should also issue a Test Certificate. There are now set of Regulations which require such Tests to be carried out. Likewise there are a set of Tests for Boilers.

I am also building a butane tank for a 3/4" traction engine right now. I was wondering if there should be a siphon tube on the burner fitting to supply the burner with liquid butane instead of the gas from the top of the tank? I know if I turn my tank/burner upside down the flame is about double in size!
