Lenz 40191-09 Rail bus 998 751-2 (control car), DB, Ep. IV: A classic of the German Federal Railroad

The Lenz 40191-09 998 751-2 rail bus is an authentic model of the German Federal Railroad from Era IV. This rail bus, also known as a control car, is part of the popular rail bus series that was developed in the 1950s and was used in passenger service on branch lines until the 1980s. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 310 mm and a multitude of technical details, this model offers a perfect combination of nostalgic charm and modern model railway technology.

The model is designed in nominal size 0 and impresses with a detailed reproduction of the original. Equipped with interior lighting, direction-dependent light change and numerous other features, the rail bus provides a realistic representation on the model railway layout. The 998 751-2 control car can be used in both analog and digital operation and can therefore be used flexibly.

The 998 751-2 rail bus: A versatile vehicle from Era IV

The rail bus series was introduced by the Deutsche Bundesbahn to make passenger transport on branch lines more efficient. The 998 751-2 driving trailer served as a supplement to the railcars and made it possible to turn the train without complicated shunting maneuvers. These rail buses, which were used particularly in rural areas, shaped the image of the German Federal Railroad in Era IV (1965-1990), which marked the transition from steam to diesel traction.

Thanks to their robust construction and easy maintenance, these vehicles were an important part of passenger transportation for a long time. The model from Lenz accurately reproduces this historical significance and the technical details of the rail bus, making it an indispensable part of any model railroad collection that focuses on Era IV.
