BRAWA 50897 H0 Train set N 2570 with class 212 and passenger train, DB, era IV - Nostalgic local traffic of the 1970s

The BRAWA 50897 H0 train set N 2570 is a detailed replica of a typical Deutsche Bundesbahn(DB) local train from Era IV. Consisting of the class 212 diesel locomotive and three n-cars, this set reflects the characteristic local traffic of the 1970s on German branch lines. With high-quality details, excellent workmanship and prototypical colors, this train set is a highlight for all lovers of historic railroads.

The prototype of the N 2570 train set - use in the Bergisches Land region

With the introduction of the reversible diesel locomotives of the V100.20/212 series and the modern n-cars (also known as Silberlinge ), the German Federal Railroad revolutionized its local transport. From the 1960s onwards, outdated steam locomotives and pre-war carriages were gradually replaced by modern diesel locomotives. The Wuppertal-Steinbeck depot played a central role in this, as it had already switched to diesel locomotives at an early stage.

Train N 2570 was a regular local train that ran on the line from Remscheid main station to Wuppertal-Vohwinkel in 1974. Due to the challenging route in the Bergisches Land region, robust and reliable class 212 locomotives were used here. The combination of the diesel locomotive and the modern n-cars ensured efficient and comfortable local transportation.

BRAWA - precision and attention to detail

The model train manufacturer BRAWA is known for its exceptionally detailed models. The N 2570 train set impresses with its realistic replica of the BR 212 diesel locomotive and the associated n-cars. Each vehicle is equipped with precise engravings, true-to-original printing and numerous individually applied details. The high-quality workmanship and attention to detail make this set a real eye-catcher on any model railway layout.

Technical details of the BRAWA 50897 H0 train set

The train set includes the class 212 diesel locomotive with the road number 212 097-0 and three passenger coaches:

• ABnb 703 DB (road number: 50 80 31-11 374-1)
• Bnb 719 DB (road number: 50 80 22-11 183-7)
• BDnf 738 DB (road number: 50 80 82-11 263-4)

The model is designed for the nominal scale H0 (1:87) and is equipped with a PluX22 interface, which allows easy retrofitting with a digital decoder. The minimum passable radius is 360 mm so that the set can also be used on compact model railroad layouts. The diesel locomotive has built-in flywheels and two traction tires, which ensure excellent tractive power.

Lighting and light change

The locomotive is equipped with a three-light headlight and two red marker lights that change automatically depending on the direction of travel. The LED lighting ensures maintenance-free and long-lasting illumination of the train composition. Thanks to the high luminosity of the LEDs, the train remains a real eye-catcher on the model railway layout even when running at night.

Realistic reproduction of the vehicles

The class 212 diesel locomotive is reproduced in great detail and has numerous individually attached components such as fan grilles, cables and steps. The n-cars are equipped with an authentic interior and show all the typical features of the silver cars, including the distinctive windows and door sections. The precise printing includes company numbers, DB logos and other lettering that visually enhance the model.

Era IV - The era of the German Federal Railroad

Era IV (1970-1990) was characterized by modernization and rationalization. During this time, the German Federal Railroad increasingly relied on diesel and electric locomotives to make operations more efficient. The N 2570 train set is a typical example of these developments and fits perfectly into train sets with other vehicles from Era IV.

Conclusion: An authentic train set for fans of local transportation

The BRAWA 50897 H0 train set N 2570 is an ideal addition for model railroaders who want to recreate the local traffic of the German Federal Railroad in true detail. The combination of the robust BR 212 diesel locomotive and the modern n-cars makes this set a highlight on any model railway layout. The excellent driving characteristics, the high-quality lighting and the realistic reproduction guarantee an impressive driving experience.
