The Fleischmann 6660220 Rmrso 31 flat car impresses with its unique design—without stanchions—and its load of a 20-foot container. As an Era IV model, this compact freight car brings an interesting piece of railroad history to your layout. This version is an attractive addition, especially for enthusiasts of classic freight trains and early container transport.
Prototype: Rmrso 31 flat car of the Deutsche Reichsbahn
Flatcars have been among the most versatile vehicles in European rail freight transport for decades. They were developed to transport a wide variety of cargo and, depending on their design and equipment, could carry items such as machinery, vehicles, construction materials, or containers. Such freight cars also played an important role in the Deutsche Reichsbahn. With the growing importance of standardized loading units, container transport evolved into an interesting component of rail freight transport. The Fleischmann model depicts an Rmrso 31 flat car and allows you to recreate such transport operations on a 1:160 scale.
Special version without stanchions
A distinctive feature of the Fleischmann 6660220 is its design without stanchions. This marks the first time in a long while that this car type has been released in a variant that differs significantly from classic stanchion cars with side brackets. The open flatcar body really showcases the loaded transport unit. The compact car design and the characteristic styling of the Deutsche Reichsbahn make this model an interesting addition to historic freight train sets. Especially when combined with other flatcars and covered freight cars, it creates a varied train composition.
20-foot container as characteristic cargo
The Fleischmann flatcar is loaded with a 20-foot container. This standardized container size is one of the best-known loading units in international freight transport. Containers enable the transport of a wide variety of goods and facilitate transshipment between different modes of transport. The combination of a classic DR flatcar and a 20-foot container gives the model a distinctive character. This makes the Fleischmann 6660220 ideal for depicting container traffic from Era IV and adds an interesting variety to historical freight trains.
Model Design & Close-Coupling Mechanism
The Fleischmann 6660220 is designed for N gauge at a scale of 1:160 and features coupler sockets compliant with NEM 355 with close-coupling kinematics. This design allows for the use of compatible close-coupling couplers and ensures a harmonious spacing between cars within the train formation. With a length over buffers of just 75 mm, this flat car has particularly compact dimensions. As a result, it can be integrated into both shorter local freight trains and longer freight train sets. The version with container loading makes the car an interesting addition to classic model railroad operations.
Compatibility & Suitable Freight Locomotives
The Fleischmann flat car is ideal for N-gauge model railroad layouts focused on the Deutsche Reichsbahn and Era IV. It combines particularly well with other flat cars, covered freight cars, open cars, and other compatible freight cars. Classic DR diesel locomotives of the 110, 118, or 120 series are ideal as train locomotives. For example, the Fleischmann Class 110 613-7 (item numbers 7360046 and 7370046) is an excellent match for a historic local freight train. The heavy BR 120 “Taigatrommel” is also suitable for such freight train formations. Operating scenes at classic freight yards, loading ramps, or on industrial tracks are particularly appealing.
A Special Freight Car for Collectors & Reichsbahn Fans
The Fleischmann 6660220 combines the characteristic design of a classic DR flatcar with an interesting container load. The design without stanchions, the compact car construction, and the included 20-foot container make this model an attractive addition for collectors of historic freight cars. This car offers versatile usage options, especially for enthusiasts of the Deutsche Reichsbahn and model railroaders focusing on container traffic from Era IV.
