Brawa 49430 freight trainluggage trolley car Pwg, DB, Ep.III

About the model: The DB Pwg freight train baggage car for Era III is a prototypical model from BRAWA. The H0 model shines in a green paint scheme with the finest printing and a road number. In addition to visual highlights, the wagon also impresses with other detailed features such as brake shoes at wheel level and individually attached grab rails and steps. The car has a length of approx. 98 mm.

About the prototype: Until the 1920s, freight trains ran with hand brakes on all German railroads. In addition to the locomotive crew, the train crew therefore included a train driver as the highest authority, a packmaster, train conductor and shunter as well as several brakemen. The brakemen were responsible for braking the train, shunting during stops en route, exchanging and processing freight documents for the goods being transported. For this purpose, an accompanying wagon was set up behind the locomotive, which served as a rolling place of work and rest. Only the brakemen had to sit in one of the brakeman's cabins during the journey. To complete its own development, the KPEV procured its first Pwg in 1913/14 in accordance with pattern sheet pr IIa13a. After the end of the First World War, this design was chosen to replace the old or missing escort coaches of most German state railroads. By 1929, over 7000 Pwg were built from the 2nd revised edition of the pattern sheet and spread not only in the former KPEV area, but also in Baden and Bavaria, Württemberg and Saxony. Allegedly because of an attempted robbery on a train, the DRB removed the continuous running boards and grab rails from the end of the 1930s. Further conversion measures before the start of the war included reinforcements to the body skeleton and the removal of the window in the loading compartment door.
