Prototype: The DR "Ernst Thälmann" youth club multiple unit

The class 175 was a striking multiple unit that was used by the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) in Era IV. The train was particularly well known in its special version as the "Ernst Thälmann" youth club, which was named after the former chairman of the KPD and resistance fighter against National Socialism. This multiple-unit train was not only a means of transportation, but also a symbol of political commitment and the youth movement in the GDR. With its eye-catching design and its function as a mobile youth club, the train was a special feature in the railroad operations of the time.

The class 175 multiple unit was originally developed for fast passenger services and was used on various DR routes. Due to its modern design and reliable operation, it was particularly popular with travelers and railroad enthusiasts. The model from Kres faithfully reproduces this historic multiple unit and brings the fascination of historic rail traffic to your model railway layout.

Technical details and equipment of the Kres 1815DS multiple unit

The Kres 1815DS multiple unit is equipped with a variety of technical refinements that ensure a realistic and pleasant driving experience. It is driven by a high-quality bell-type armature motor, which impresses with its smooth running and efficiency. Thanks to the FlexDec control system with SUSI interface and the built-in sound decoder, you can experience the multiple unit not only visually but also acoustically. The sound provides an authentic soundscape that makes the model a special highlight on your layout.

The standard interior lighting in warm white gives the model a realistic atmosphere, while the head and tail lights, which are dependent on the direction of travel, provide additional realism. This lighting technology automatically adapts to the direction of travel, providing an authentic appearance. Thanks to the current-carrying, 4-pole coupling, the power supply between the car units is safely guaranteed, resulting in even operation along the entire route.

The multiple unit has a length of approx. 820 mm and is suitable for track systems with a minimum running radius of 310 mm. This flexibility makes the model ideal for various layouts, even on smaller model railroad layouts. The model is designed for the direct current system (DC) and therefore fits perfectly with TT layouts based on this system.
