With a length over the buffers of 188.3 mm, the car is perfectly proportioned for realistic train formations of Era V.

Historical Background

The Standard Cars IV were introduced in 1992–93 to complement the successful Standard Cars III, further enhancing the heavily traveled tourist trains such as the “Bernina Express.” The BD 2475 was used as a baggage and service car and played a central role in establishing a consistent standard of comfort. The combination of EW III and IV cars made it possible for the first time to create a second complete Bernina Express formation.

The model is designed for all H0 DC layouts (2L-DC) and combines excellently with other Standard Cars as well as RhB locomotives. Thanks to a minimum curve radius of 360 mm, the car is suitable for medium to large layouts. The proprietary coupler mount ensures a reliable connection and smooth cornering.

Included in the package is the fully assembled IV BD 2475 standard car in the “Bernina Express” design, ready for operation on 2L DC layouts.
