Arnold HN9778 TT Ferry Refrigerated Car, DR, Era IV “Rhöntropfen” – Special Transport with Eastern Charm

With the Arnold HN9778, you can add a highly detailed, Era IV Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) ferry refrigerated car in TT scale (1:120) to your layout. Printed with the well-known “Rhöntropfen” motif, this car represents not only temperature-controlled freight transport in the GDR but also the distinctive advertising design in rail freight transport of the 1970s and 1980s.

Typical Era IV – Refrigerated transport with character

The car belongs to the class of ferry-type refrigerated cars, which were specially designed for international transport, particularly for ferry service between different rail systems. The eye-catching “Rhöntropfen” advertising print makes this car a special highlight in any train formation—whether in block trains or as a single car.

True to detail and technically sophisticated

With a length over the buffers of 97 mm, the car fits perfectly into TT freight trains. It is equipped with a NEM-compliant coupler housing and a close-coupling mechanism, enabling safe and prototypical operation on tight curves and in complex layouts.

Reliable operation on DC layouts

The car is designed for operation on 2-wire DC layouts and is therefore perfect for TT model railroading enthusiasts focusing on historical East German themes or international freight traffic related to the GDR.
