Historical Background

The IV-series standard-design cars were introduced starting in 1992/93 to further expand heavily traveled tourist routes such as the “Bernina Express.” Car B 2492 is one of the first second-class cars in this series and was primarily used between Landquart, Davos, Filisur, and Tirano. Together with the EW III series cars, they formed a second complete train set starting in 1995—a milestone in Alpine tourism.

Compatibility & Expansion Options

The model is suitable for all H0 layouts with 2-wire direct current (DC). It can be easily combined with other RhB standard cars as well as with locomotives from the Ge 4/4 II or III series. Thanks to the in-house coupler mount, secure connections are guaranteed. The car is designed for a minimum radius of 360 mm and is therefore ideally suited for medium-sized to large model railroad layouts.
