Fleischmann 6260067 N gauge set of 3 passenger coaches, SNCF, Era III: Elegance on French tracks

The Fleischmann 6260067 N-gauge set of 3 is a high-quality replica of passenger coaches from the French State Railways (SNCF) from Era III. With its precise design and prototypical details, this set brings the typical elegance and style of French rail transport from the 1950s and 1960s to your model railway layout. This set is ideal for designing international train sets or for authentically representing SNCF local and long-distance traffic.

The prototype: German passenger coaches in the service of the SNCF

During Era III, roughly between 1945 and 1970, it was not uncommon for German passenger coaches to be used in the service of the French State Railways. These coaches offered a high level of comfort and were used in both national and cross-border traffic. The coaches in this set represent this interesting transitional period in which international cooperation played an important role in rail traffic.

The set consists of three carefully designed cars, including one 1st/2nd class car (class ABmyf) and two 2nd class cars (class Bmyf). The characteristic features of the German design, combined with the adaptations for French operation, make this set a highlight for N-gauge enthusiasts.

Technical features and workmanship

The cars are designed with a prototypical SNCF paint scheme and lettering. The precise reproduction includes filigree roof superstructures, detailed axle bearings and finely designed buffer beams. The set is designed for operation on 2-conductor direct current systems (DC) and has NEM coupling shafts with close coupling kinematics that ensure realistic car spacing. All of the cars are prepared for the installation of interior lighting, which expands the operating options on your layout.

Era III: A time of change and internationality

Era III was characterized by reconstruction and modernization, also in rail traffic. International train sets and the use of wagons from different national railroad companies reflected the cooperative spirit of the time. With this set, you can authentically recreate the variety and charm of French rail traffic of this era.

Care and maintenance

The wagons are low-maintenance, but should be regularly cleaned of dust and dirt, especially on the axles and couplings. The possibility of retrofitting interior lighting opens up additional design options. To ensure long-term operability, the couplings and axle bearings should be checked occasionally and lightly oiled if necessary.
