The Kres 2209NDS VT 2.09.203 railcar and the VS 2.08.203 driving trailer of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) from Era III are exquisite models that will make the hearts of model railroad enthusiasts beat faster. These vehicles, affectionately known as "Ferkeltaxe", played a decisive role in the DR branch line service and are now available as high-quality models with impressive functions.
From the mid-1960s, the light combustion railcars (LVT) were indispensable on many DR branch lines. Development work began in 1955, and by 1959 two prototypes had been built and tested at the Haldensleben depot. In 1962/63, VEB Waggonbau Bautzen produced a pilot series of five units. Two further series with a total of 63 railcars and the corresponding sidecars followed until 1964. From serial number 2.09.033, the distinctive panoramic windows were replaced by three-part front windows. Driving trailers were introduced in 1965 to avoid the time-consuming transfer at end points. From 1969, VEB Waggonbau Görlitz produced a further series with improved multiple controls and reinforced frames. contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
