Brawa 51002 H0 Teleskophaubenwagen Shimmns-u 708, DBAG, Ep.V Product Details

Description

Due to the rolling process during production, coils of sheet steel are sensitive to moisture. To enable these coils to be transported to the processing industry without corrosion damage, the vehicle industry developed a special design flat wagon in the 1970s with three interlocking hoods, the Shis 708, from 1987 the Shimmns 708. The hoods can be moved as required for easy loading of coils and release the five loading recesses embedded in the vehicle frame. The Deutsche Bundesbahn ordered over 2,500 Shis / Shimmns 708 in two large batches, but the actual number of vehicles of this type built is significantly higher due to further orders from other state railroads and rental companies. As the hoods became more maintenance-intensive with increasing age, DB AG had the hoods of 1,000 wagons replaced with sliding tarpaulins from 2002 and reclassified these vehicles as Shimmns-ttu 772. However, private operators still use vehicles in their original condition.
