Brawa 50896 H0 train set Höllentalbahn with E44 und passenger car, DB, Ep.III, AC Product Details

Description

It is not for nothing that the Höllentalbahn (from Freiburg main station via Neustadt/Black Forest to Donaueschingen) is one of the most impressive railroad lines in Germany, with its breathtaking route through the narrow Höllental valley and gradients of up to 57.14 per thousand. Today, it is rightly registered as a cultural monument of spatial significance in the Southern Upper Rhine region. The line was electrified as early as 1933 with a voltage of 20 kV at a frequency of 50 Hz. At the same time, the rolling stock was renewed with the BR 85 and E 244 locomotives and the Ci-33 and BCi-34 light branch line carriages. It was not until May 1960 that the voltage was switched to the now standard 15 kV at 16²/3 Hz. This meant that the E 244s were replaced from one day to the next by E44w from the Freiburg depot. They took over the electric traction on the Höllentalbahn and also the transportation of the passenger trains typical for this route from various standard branch line cars.
