The Fleischmann 863960 N UIC-X 1st class passenger coach is an exquisite model of an express train coach of the Italian State Railways (Ferrovie dello Stato, FS).

The prototype of the Fleischmann 863960: FS UIC-X express train coaches

The UIC-X wagons are one of the most influential wagon series in European rail transport. They were put into service from 1952 and set new standards in terms of comfort and functionality. With over 6,145 units built, these wagons became the standard for international express trains, particularly in international services and transit traffic.

The Italian state railroads (FS) procured a variant of these coaches, which was characterized by its striking appearance and high-quality equipment. In Era IV (1965-1990), the FS UIC-X coaches were mainly used in high-quality express trains. Their gray Ardesia paintwork, combined with the streamlined design without skirts, made them an iconic part of European rail transport.
