The Kres 4913DS glass train elT1998 is an outstanding replica of one of the most fascinating railcars of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG). This model in TT scale brings the elegance and uniqueness of the famous glass trains of Era II directly to your layout. With its detailed design, excellent running characteristics and modern functions such as interior lighting and sound, this model is a perfect choice for discerning model railroaders.
The glass trains were produced in 1935 by the Fuchs wagon factory in Heidelberg (mechanical part) and AEG (electrical part). They got their nickname because of the almost completely glazed sides and roofs, which offered passengers a unique panoramic view. These railcars were used especially for excursions in southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Their elegant construction and unusual design made them a crowd-puller. Today, the remaining train is on display in the Augsburg Railway Park, while the second train was destroyed in the Second World War.
The company Kres is known for its high-quality TT scale models, and the 4913DS Glass Train is another example of its expertise.

Era II (1920-1945) marks the era of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft, in which pioneering technologies and elegant designs were developed.
