Historical background

The K2 freight cars were used by the SBB from the 1920s. In order to standardize maintenance and spare parts stock, private railroads also purchased these car types. The K2 series with an extended wheelbase of 5 m was characterized by improved running characteristics and became the standard design for covered freight wagons in Switzerland.

Compatibility & expansion options

The wagon is suitable for use on all standard H0 track systems and can be ideally combined with other freight wagons or Era II advertising wagons. It goes particularly well with SBB freight trains or shunting operations in historical style.
