The Brawa 51304 H0 Pw4ü baggage car brings the fascination of historic train travel directly to your model railroad layout. As a faithful reproduction of a German State Railroad Company (DRG) baggage car from Era II (1920-1945), this model will impress you with its precise details, prototypical equipment and high quality. With its typical "iron type" design, it embodies the history of German rail transportation and perfectly complements any express train or express train of that time.
The development of Prussian-style baggage wagons marked a turning point in rail transportation. After the "iron design" had proven to be durable and efficient for D-train coaches, the Prussian State Railroad also procured luggage coaches with a steel construction. These wagons were characterized by standardized dimensions and robust construction. The external features such as the riveted side walls, the prototypically retracted bellows and the absence of the sprinkler system characterized the appearance of the express and express trains for decades.
The versatility of these coaches is particularly noteworthy: they were used both in D trains with crossovers and in express trains without crossovers. Until the 1950s, these baggage wagons were a familiar sight on the German and European rail network. Many survived the Second World War and were later used by the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) and the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR).
The Brawa Pw4ü baggage car is a detailed replica that meets the high demands of model railroad enthusiasts. The prototypical reproduction of the bogies and the true-to-scale side panels give the car an impressive authenticity. The wheelsets are designed with point bearings, which ensures smooth and realistic running characteristics.
Another highlight of the model is the precisely reproduced bellows, which are retracted at the ends of the car - just like the original. The brake system, including the brake shoes at wheel level, has been designed in several parts to ensure maximum attention to detail here too.
The wagon has a length over buffers of 213.7 mm and is equipped with close coupling kinematics, which enables prototypical operation and simple coupling. For an additional atmospheric effect, the baggage car can be retrofitted with the optional interior lighting (BRAWA order no. 2212), which stylishly sets the interior in scene even when traveling at night.
Another plus is the option of AC wheelset replacement (BRAWA order no. 2181), which means that the car can be used on both DC and AC systems. An optional AC pickup shoe (BRAWA order no. 2221) further expands the possible uses.
Era II is considered one of the most exciting periods in railroading, characterized by the introduction of modern express trains and new designs. The Pw4ü baggage wagon was an indispensable part of passenger transportation during this time and transported baggage, mail and other goods over long distances. It supplemented express trains with luxurious 1st and 2nd class carriages, as well as express trains that ran across Germany and Europe.
The Brawa 51304 Pw4ü baggage car is the perfect addition to any H0 layout depicting trains from Era II. With its detailed equipment, the option of interior lighting and flexible use, this car offers great value for money. Model railroaders who value historical authenticity and high quality will be delighted with this model.
