About the model: The DB MPw4ie baggage car on a scale of 1:87 impresses with its prototypical brake system, free-standing handle bars and a multi-part interior. Ideal for an authentic representation on your model layout.

About the prototype: There was a great shortage of baggage cars for long-distance express trains after the end of the war. However, the young DB decided to use the available funds for the construction of new passenger coaches and to solve the luggage coach problem on the basis of conversions. To do this, it used the 600 or so makeshift passenger coaches that remained in its fleet after the end of the war. These were no longer suitable for passengers due to their interior fittings and poor running characteristics. Two of these car bodies were joined together, fitted with an explosive system and placed on two American-design bogies. The approximately 290 luggage coaches built from 1950 onwards were designated MPw4ie-54/55 and MPw4yg-57.
