Albert Model 696011 H0 Fads Ballast Car, MAV, Era IV – Ballast Transport for the Hungarian State Railways in the Style of the 1970s and 1980s

The Albert Model 696011 is a highly detailed Fads-type ballast car from the Hungarian State Railways (MAV; Magyar Államvasutak), suitable for Era IV. It is ideal for use in construction and ballast trains on Eastern European and international H0 layouts that aim to depict freight traffic from the 1970s and 1980s.

Authenticity and operational reliability combined

The model impresses with its realistic color scheme, crisp printing, and finely engraved details. The NEM coupler housing with close-coupling kinematics ensures prototypical car spacing and smooth operation in a train formation—whether running individually or in long block trains.

Classic technology for DC layouts

Designed for the 2-wire direct current (DC) system, the model is not equipped with digital or sound functions. It is therefore perfectly suited for model railroaders who value simple, robust technology and high fidelity to the prototype—in both analog and digital operation.
