Brawa 46200 H0 Passenger Car C4ywe "Touropa", DB, Era III - Historic elegance for tourist traffic

The Brawa 46200 H0 "Touropa" C4ywe passenger car is an exact reproduction of one of the best-known tourist train cars of the German Federal Railroad (DB) in Era III. The Touropa trains were specially designed for organized tourism and transported vacationers comfortably to their vacation regions. With excellent detailing, authentic paint schemes and high-quality interiors, this model brings a nostalgic travel feeling to your model railroad layout.

The prototype: Comfortable rail travel on vacation

After the Second World War, the Deutsche Bundesbahn recognized the increasing demand for comfortable and affordable vacation travel. Together with tour operators, special tourist trains were developed - including the famous Touropa trains. These transported passengers in comfort to vacation destinations such as the Alps, the North and Baltic Seas and other European countries. The carriages offered spacious compartments, large windows and a pleasant atmosphere for long journeys.

Prototypical model realization

The Brawa 46200 impresses with its detailed design. The precisely reproduced Görlitz III lightweight bogies with quadruple suspension provide a realistic appearance and smooth running characteristics. The precisely reproduced frame with numerous attached individual parts, finely detailed roof rivets and prototypical rubber bead transitions round off the high-quality appearance.

Technical equipment and lighting

The model has a factory-fitted interior and is prepared for retrofittable interior lighting(BRAWA order number 2212). Thanks to the close coupling kinematics according to NEM, several cars can be coupled optimally and put together to form a realistic train set.

Flexibility thanks to AC wheelset option

The car is suitable for use on AC systems. A suitable AC wheel set (BRAWA order number 2188) and an AC slider (BRAWA order number 2222) allow easy adaptation to different model railroad systems.

Running characteristics and minimum radius

With a length over buffers of 239.8 mm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the model is suitable for all standard H0 layouts. The three-point bearing and the metal axle bearings guarantee smooth and stable running characteristics.
