The Bemo 2292150 H0m RhB Anniversary Car Sb 65616, featuring the “50 Years of BEMO” design, is a model that directly references a real-life prototype. On March 25, 2026, “our” anniversary car was wrapped with decals by employees of the Sirek company at the Landquart main workshop. Since then, it has been operating on the Rhaetian Railway network and will mark BEMO’s 50th anniversary on the Graubünden meter-gauge network for one year. This model thus celebrates a special company anniversary and connects the world of model railroading with a real-life car in service on the RhB network.
With item number 2292150, this anniversary car is available as an H0m-scale model of the RhB. The designation is Anniversary Car Sb 65616, RhB, “50 Years of BEMO,” Anniversary Car “50 Years of BEMO.” Also specified are the details H0m, Era VI, a length of 168.1, and a minimum radius of R > 330. Additionally, the model is designated as a new release and a new mold. The provided specifications do not contain any further information, so this model focuses entirely on its unique design and its anniversary significance.
The car is not merely an anniversary model, but the result of a deliberate design process. Following the initial design concepts, test photos of the RhB locomotive milestones were taken on the display layout and provided to the graphic designer to create several proposals. All elements of the design were refined through numerous rounds of revisions. The selection ultimately focused on motifs that are particularly significant for BEMO’s first decades.
On one side, the most significant models from the early decades were selected: the legendary “Krokodil,” as well as the Ge 4/4 II and Ge 4/4 III. For the opposite side, the yellow Bernina Nostalgia railcar, the “Ahnenzug,” and the “Capricorn” were chosen as distinctive railcars. It is precisely this mix that makes the car so interesting, as it showcases various iconic vehicles in a unified anniversary design. The result is a model that not only stands out visually but also highlights the development and diversity of the RhB and BEMO worlds.
The anniversary activities also include a photo contest. A locomotive model will be raffled off as the grand prize among all photo submissions received by August 1, 2026, at the email address mail(at)bemo-modellbahn.de. The second- and third-place entries will each receive a car model of their choice. The three winning photos will be featured on the back cover of BEMO-Post 68. Entries must be landscape-format photos of the anniversary car prototype taken in Graubünden. Each entrant may submit one photo in print-ready resolution with a maximum file size of 20 MB. By submitting an entry, the entrant transfers the rights to publish the photo to BEMO.
This campaign also underscores how closely the model is linked to the real-life prototype and the anniversary year. The car thus represents not only a beautiful subject but also a real-life event and an ongoing anniversary presence on the Rhaetian Railway network.
This model is particularly exciting for collectors of RhB rolling stock, for BEMO fans, and for model railroaders who appreciate current models with a direct connection to the original. The car bears a clearly recognizable anniversary message and combines several well-known motifs from the history of BEMO models. This is precisely what makes it stand out visibly within a collection or a train set. Anyone looking for a car that not only runs but also tells a story will find a particularly striking version here.
