Prototype: The VT 137 railcar of the Deutsche Reichsbahn

The VT 137 was a Deutsche Reichsbahn railcar that was in service before and after the Second World War. The 'Stettin' design was developed for regional and light passenger service and was characterized by its reliability and flexibility. In Era III, i.e. in the years between 1945 and 1970, the VT 137 was used on numerous lines in the GDR. Thanks to its compact design and economical operation, it could also be used on branch lines.

The models from Kres perfectly capture the historical prototypes and faithfully reproduce the technical and visual features of the vehicles. The VT 137 'Stettin' has been lovingly aged in this model to realistically depict the many years of use in railroad operations.
