Digital Double-Deck Comfort – Brawa 44575 H0 Double-Deck Center Car Dbdpza, Metronom, Era VI, DC Digital

Would you like to add digital features to your Metronom train? The Brawa 44575 H0 Double-Deck Center Car Dbdpza, Metronom, Era VI is the perfect addition to modern DC layouts. With digital features, a prototypical appearance, and LED technology, this car brings realistic Era VI regional rail service to your model railroad.

Prototype-accurate implementation for the RE 3

The center car with road number 50 80 96-73 501-6 is designed for the RE 3 Hamburg Hbf line and corresponds exactly to the real Metronom vehicles. As part of the TWINDEXX Vario® platform, this model offers not only state-of-the-art technology but also ICE-like comfort—faithfully reproduced in 1:87 scale.

Digital control & LED lighting

The model comes factory-equipped with digital technology and features warm-white LED interior lighting, illuminated destination displays, and an illuminated driver’s cab. The red/white light change occurs automatically in the direction of travel. Thanks to the ZugBUS function, the lead and last cars are automatically detected in digital operation, and all lighting functions are centrally controlled—including brake section detection.

Material Quality & Visual Details

The body is made of impact-resistant plastic with a metal base plate for optimal stability. Fine printing, precisely fitting windows, multi-part bogies, and attached windshield wipers ensure a realistic appearance. The paint scheme is perfectly matched to the BRAWA TRAXX BR 146.5 electric locomotive —ideal for a harmonious Metronom train set.

The Prototype: TWINDEXX Vario® in Local and Long-Distance Service

The TWINDEXX Vario® cars have been in service since 2010 and are characterized by high seating comfort, modern design, and a top speed of 160 km/h. Metronom uses these cars in regional service, while they operate as Intercity 2 trains for DB Fernverkehr—on heavily traveled routes throughout Germany.

For discerning digital model railroaders

The Brawa 44575 middle car is ideal for anyone who wants to model Era VI regional trains with modern digital operation. Whether as part of a complete train or as a single-car addition—this model impresses technically and visually across the board.
