Brawa 58308 H0 luggage trolley carPw4ü-37, DR, Ep. III Product Details

Description

Are you looking for a DR baggage car from Era III for your model railroad layout?

The Brawa 58308 H0 Pw4ü-37 baggage car of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) is a highly detailed model of a classic postwar D-train baggage car. With extensive detailing and pre-wired interior lighting, this car is perfect for authentic train formations from the 1950s and 1960s in the GDR.

Model Information & Technical Specifications

The model is designed for H0 gauge at a scale of 1:87 and measures 249.70 mm over the buffers. It operates on a 2-wire direct current (DC) system and features a pre-wired interior lighting system. Coupling is via a NEM-compliant coupling box with close-coupling kinematics —ideal for tight radii and reliable operation.

Prototype-accurate design with a high level of detail

The variant-specific side walls and the adapted roof shape reflect the appearance of the Pw4ü-37 cars used by the DR. Metal axle holders, prototypical axle bearing caps, brake shoes flush with the wheel face, separately attached axle brake linkage, and a multi-part braking system ensure maximum attention to detail. The fully reproduced car floor and the fine printing round out the high-quality overall appearance.

Background: DR Service of a DRG Classic

The Pw4ü-37 model was introduced in 1935 as a fully welded D-train baggage car for the DRG. After the war, many of these cars remained in service—often in largely unchanged condition—with the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR). They were used in express train service in the GDR well into the 1970s and were a typical feature of everyday rail life during Era III.

The perfect addition to postwar DR train sets

Whether in international through-service trains or on domestic routes in the GDR—this baggage car is the perfect choice for model railroaders focusing on the Deutsche Reichsbahn of Era III. Its realistic design, modular construction, and technical features make it a valuable addition to any historic train set.
