ASM 198180 N Semi-baggage car Adbmpsz, 1st class, ÖBB, Era VI

Are you looking for a modern ÖBB car in N scale that adds a special function and a distinct Era VI character to your passenger train set? The ASM 198180 N Adbmpsz Half-Baggage Car, 1st Class, ÖBB, Era VI is the perfect addition for model railroaders who want to expand their collection or layout with a high-quality half-baggage car based on an Austrian prototype. The combination of first class and a baggage compartment brings more variety to modern passenger and long-distance trains.

The car is assigned to the ÖBB railway company and is therefore particularly suitable for layouts with an Austrian focus or international passenger train services. Especially in N gauge, longer train formations can be displayed in a space-saving manner, allowing this half-baggage car to play an interesting role in EuroCity trains and modern car formations.

ÖBB Half-Baggage Car based on the UIC-Z prototype

The prototype belongs to the UIC-Z class of passenger cars, which were procured by the ÖBB starting in 1989. These cars differ from the original Eurofima design in several ways, including a lower skirt, the absence of hinged windows, and tail lights positioned at the corners of the car. These features give the car a distinctive appearance and make it appealing to model railroaders who wish to reproduce modern ÖBB rolling stock as authentically as possible.

As part of an upgrade program, some of the cars were modified and modernized. In the process, they received their current paint scheme. As a result, they fit very well into Era VI and can be convincingly integrated into modern passenger train themes. The ASM 198180 thus offers an attractive way to bring the atmosphere of current ÖBB long-distance service to your layout in N-gauge.

For EuroCity trains operating internationally

The prototype cars are used, among other things, in EuroCity trains and run from Austria to Germany, Italy, and Switzerland. This model thus opens up many possibilities for creating realistic international train formations. Whether as a single supplementary car or as part of a longer ÖBB passenger train: The Adbmpsz half-luggage car integrates seamlessly into modern train formations.

Technically, the model is designed for the 2L DC system. It is not digitally equipped and has no sound, which, for a car model, means a clean and straightforward design for layout operation. The minimum curve radius of 228 mm supports use on typical N-gauge layouts. Thanks to the NEM-compliant coupler shaft with KK kinematics, the car can be seamlessly integrated into compatible train formations.

The ASM 198180 N Adbmpsz 1st-Class Semi-Luggage Car, ÖBB, Era VI, is designed for model railroading enthusiasts seeking a special car for modern passenger and EuroCity trains.
