Brawa 50965 H0 Covered freight car Gltr, DRG, Era II 'DKW', AC: A masterpiece for your model railroad layout

The Brawa 50965 H0 Covered Freight Car Gltr is an exact replica of a historic freight car of the German State Railroad Company (DRG) from Era II. This model, designed in the authentic 'DKW' design, is specially designed for alternating current systems (AC) and will enhance any H0 model railroad layout with its high level of detail and historical accuracy.

Historical prototype: The DRG Gltr boxcar

In the 1920s, the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft developed standardized freight cars to meet the growing demands of freight transport. The Gltr covered freight wagon was a versatile wagon type that was particularly suitable for transporting sensitive or valuable goods. Characteristic of this type of wagon were the double-leaf doors and the robust design, which ensured safe transportation. The construction was designed to enable a long service life and represented a significant further development in rail freight transport.

The manufacturer Brawa: precision and passion in model making

Brawa has been synonymous with high-quality model railroads and accessories for decades. Based in Germany, Brawa attaches great importance to attention to detail, quality and technical innovation. Each model is manufactured with the highest precision to inspire both collectors and model train enthusiasts. The Gltr boxcar in the 'DKW' design is another example of Brawa's commitment to reproducing historical railroad models authentically and to the highest quality.

Epoch II: The golden era of the railroad

Era II (1920-1950) is considered one of the most formative periods in the history of the railroad. Many technical innovations were introduced during this time and the railroad developed into the dominant means of transportation for passengers and freight. The Brawa 50965 freight car captures the spirit of this era and allows model railroaders to experience a piece of this fascinating history on their layout.

Technical details of the model

The model is equipped with numerous lovingly designed details. The axle brackets are made of embossed sheet metal, which ensures a realistic appearance. Specially attached spring assemblies and brake adjusters underline the high level of detail and ensure an even more authentic reproduction of the prototype. The wheel bearings are delicately reproduced, while the underbody is modeled on the original. A particular highlight is the fact that the wheels are also profiled on the inside, which rounds off the overall picture and ensures realistic driving behavior.

Track gauge and power system

The model is designed for the H0 gauge with a scale of 1:87 and is suitable for use in alternating current systems (AC). Thanks to the built-in close coupling kinematics in accordance with the NEM standard, the car can be optimally integrated into existing model railway systems and offers a safe and prototypical coupling.

Color scheme and design

The color scheme of the model corresponds to the historical DRG prototype in Era II. The authentic paintwork and the precise lettering in the 'DKW' design make the car a real eye-catcher on any model railway layout. The lettering is applied in razor-sharp detail and corresponds to the specifications of the historical original. The color scheme reflects the typical look of Era II and ensures a harmonious integration into your model railway environment.

Quality and workmanship

The Brawa company is known for its high-quality models, which impress with their excellent workmanship. The model is made of durable materials and impresses with its high level of attention to detail. The individual components are precisely manufactured so that there are no annoying burrs or unclean edges. This quality makes the trolley particularly robust and ensures that it remains in excellent condition even after many years.

Accessories and expansion options

Brawa offers suitable accessories to further individualize your model railway layout. Supplementary wagons in the style of Era II, matching locomotives or specific load models are available to further extend the range of uses of the covered freight wagon. These additions make it possible to create realistic scenes that perfectly reflect the charm of the historic railroad.

Care and maintenance

To ensure the longevity of the model, it should be regularly cleaned of dust. Gentle cleaning with a soft brush or compressed air will help to preserve the fine details. Direct sunlight should be avoided to protect the colors from fading. If the clutch becomes stiff, a drop of model railroad oil can ensure smooth operation.
