A meticulously detailed model for the most discerning enthusiasts

The Brawa Bnrzb 724 impresses with numerous technical and visual highlights.

Metal axle holders, a multi-part braking system, and a prototypical interior underscore the attention to detail. The car is delivered fully equipped in accordance with the original design and is therefore ready for immediate operation. The distinctive “Frankfurt/Main Airport” lettering also makes the model a special collector’s item.

Historical prototype with cult status

The so-called “n-cars”—better known by their nickname “Silberlinge”—were developed starting in the late 1950s in response to growing demand in local transit. Their eye-catching stainless-steel cladding with the characteristic peacock-eye pattern made them unmistakable. The Bnrzb 724 is a prime example of this car type, of which over 5,000 were produced by 1980. The designation “Frankfurt/Main Airport” refers to its use in commuter service to one of Germany’s most important transportation hubs. Many of these vehicles were later modernized or converted, but in their original configuration—as seen in this model—the charm of the classic Bundesbahn commuter trains remains fully intact.
