With their robust construction and authentic design, these wagons are an ideal addition to any N-gauge layout.

The prototype of the Fleischmann 6660087: Sliding tarpaulin wagon of the Shimmns type

Sliding tarpaulin wagons such as the Shimmns are universal goods wagons that are mainly used for transporting palletized goods, rolls of paper, building materials or machinery. Thanks to the sliding tarpaulin, they offer optimum protection from the weather and at the same time enable fast loading and unloading. These wagons are particularly suitable for use in block trains, where they are used in large numbers on European routes.

The wagons in the Fleischmann set represent the modern freight logistics of Era VI and are a familiar sight in rail freight traffic, especially on international routes.
