Brawa 46788 luggage trolley car Pwi-29, DRG, Ep.II

About the model: The DRG Pwi-29 baggage car has finely engraved rivets and many extra details that give the model a realistic and authentic appearance. The model also has prototypical interior fittings and close coupler kinematics. All of this is rounded off with precise printing on a prototypical paintwork.

About the prototype: The development of the two-axle standard through coaches of the replacement type is closely linked to the emergence of standardization of components in the railroad industry as a key industry in the 1920s. The Deutsche Reichsbahn Gesellschaft (DRG) had set itself the goal of having wagon components manufactured according to the same specifications and conditions across all companies. The aim was to drastically reduce maintenance costs in its own factories and make components interchangeable. With this in mind, the DRG commissioned the Gesellschaft Deutscher Waggonfabriken (D.W.V.) to develop and supply the desired standardized through coaches. The requirement for replacement construction meant that around 1,400 drawings were no longer necessary for each individual type of wagon. Instead, there was a basic type on which the modified designs were based with approx. 150 drawings of their own. From 1928, almost 5,500 coaches of the various types BCi-28, Ci-28, CDi-29, Pwi-28, Ci-29 BCi-29, Pwi-29, Bi-29 and Ci-30 were built for passenger services in several delivery series. The coaches met the DRG's expectations. As a result, many older Länderbahn coaches and splitter classes were taken out of service. The running characteristics of the coaches, which were not particularly satisfactory for passengers, quickly earned them the well-known nickname "Donnerbüchsen" (thunderboxes). The chaos of war inevitably led to many European railroad companies subsequently also having two-axle standard through coaches in their fleets. What they all had in common, however, was that the carriages were withdrawn from the general maintenance stock towards the end of the 1960s and beginning of the 1970s. The wagons that still exist today are very popular with various museum railroads at home and abroad.
