Are you looking for a detailed freight car for your Era III layout in 0 gauge? The Lenz 42209-02 G10 covered freight car, serving as a utility car for the Deutsche Bundesbahn, is a historically accurate model that stands out with numerous authentic features. Ideal for anyone who values the highest level of prototypical accuracy and functional details.

A typical car from the early Bundesbahn era

As a control car without its own braking system, this G10 was a staple of many post-war freight trains. Its characteristic closed-box design makes it the ideal means of transport for weather-sensitive goods—a classic that no Era III layout should be without. The version in DB livery and with road number 138 106 makes the model historically accurate and authentic.

Functionality and Attention to Detail in 0 Gauge

The Lenz G10 impresses not only with its true-to-scale appearance but also with its sophisticated technology. Doors that open add to the play value and enable realistic loading scenarios. With a length over the buffers of 204 mm, it fits harmoniously into freight trains of this type—perfectly combined with other cars from Era III.

Robust construction – finely detailed

The model stands on sturdy metal wheel sets and is equipped with spring buffers that ensure smooth transitions between cars. Thanks to the integrated close-coupling mechanism, the car runs smoothly and evenly—even on tight curves. The retrofit option for a screw coupler offers additional flexibility for those who wish to customize their rolling stock.

Ideal for authentic freight trains of the 1950s and 60s

The G10 covered freight car harmoniously complements any Era III layout in 0 gauge. Whether as part of a long freight train, in a small station, or as a single car on a siding—this car always fits in and impresses with its realistic appearance. A must-have for all model railroaders focused on the post-war German Federal Railroad.
