Brawa 51309 H0 Pw4ü baggage car, DB, Era III, with interior lighting - A highlight of post-war train service

The Brawa 51309 H0 Pw4ü baggage car brings the legendary E 230 express train and the post-war era directly to your model railroad layout. As a faithful reproduction of the German Federal Railroad (DB) from Era III, this model will impress you with its integrated interior lighting, precise details and high-quality workmanship that will delight both collectors and model railroaders.

Historical significance of the Pw4ü baggage car

The Pw4ü baggage car played a central role in post-war express train traffic, especially in express trains such as the famous E 230 express train, which took passengers through the Ruhr area from Dortmund to Cologne in the 1950s. The combination of old express train coaches and modern city express coaches made these trains a symbol of economic reconstruction in Germany. Luggage wagons such as the Pw4ü not only transported suitcases and goods, but also mail and smaller freight items and were therefore indispensable in the railroad network of the time.

Excellent workmanship and technical highlights

The Brawa 51309 baggage car is characterized by its true-to-scale reproduction of the side panels and the prototypical bogies. The wheel sets with center bearings ensure smooth running and quiet operation on your model railroad layout. Another detail is the retracted bellows, which ensure a prototypical connection with other wagons.

The integrated interior lighting provides authentic illumination of the interior, making the wagon particularly impressive on night journeys. Thanks to the built-in soldering points, the model can also be easily upgraded to digital control systems.

Flexibility for different model railroad layouts

The model has close coupling kinematics in accordance with the NEM standard, which enables simple and prototypical use in train sets. The car has a length over buffers of 213.7 mm and requires a minimum radius of 360 mm, making it perfect for use on most H0 layouts.

Switching to AC is not recommended due to the built-in interior lighting and technical details, but Brawa offers suitable AC wheel sets (order no. 2181) and AC sliders (order no. 2221) for model railroaders who want to make flexible adaptations.

Part of a prototypical train combination

This baggage car completes the train set of the E 230 express train, which was a typical feature of German railroad traffic in the 1950s. The train was often pulled by the class 01 express locomotive, which will be remembered for its impressive performance and striking appearance. The route ran through important cities such as Essen, Duisburg and Düsseldorf and finally ended at Cologne Central Station. With the Pw4ü and the matching cars from the Brawa range, you can recreate this iconic route on your model railway layout.

Conclusion: A must for historical model railroads

The Brawa 51309 H0 Pw4ü baggage car is much more than just an accessory car - it is a piece of history. With its excellent detailing, integrated interior lighting and high-quality technical features, it offers you a realistic and fascinating railroad experience.
