Lenz 43300-80 0 Freight Train Set: Class 141 Electric Locomotive and 3 High Side Cars, Era V

The Lenz 43300-80 0 freight train set offers an impressive combination of the class 141 electric locomotive and three high-sided wagons from the German Railways (DB) and Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). With this set, you can get an authentic replica of a typical freight train from Era V in gauge 0 on your model railroad layout. The high-quality technical equipment and the detailed design make this set a perfect addition for anyone who appreciates realistic model railroad operation.

Prototype: The class 141 electric locomotive

The class 141 electric locomotive was originally developed for the German Federal Railroad and has been a reliable workhorse of German rail traffic since the 1950s. In Era V, when Deutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) was founded, the class 141 continued to be active, especially in freight service. The model in this set shows the 141 030-7 locomotive in the blue and beige livery of the late German Federal Railroad era. This colour scheme was characteristic until the widespread introduction of the traffic red design in the 1990s and emphasizes the nostalgic charm of the locomotive.

The Eanos high side cars

The set includes three Eanos type high-sided wagons, which were typical transport wagons for bulk goods such as coal, ore and scrap in Era V. Two of the cars belong to the German Railroad, one to the Swiss Federal Railroad. The cars are detailed and each has an individual design, including one car with graffiti painting that authentically reflects the everyday life of freight traffic at that time. The combination of German and Swiss cars makes this set an ideal representation of international freight traffic in the 1990s.

Era V: A time of change

Era V (1990-2006) was characterized by the transition to the modern railroad. With the founding of DB AG in 1994, not only the organization of rail operations changed, but also the design and operational concepts of many vehicles. Cooperation with international railroad companies such as SBB was intensified, which was also reflected in the joint use of locomotives and freight wagons. This set brings the characteristic freight traffic of this era to your model railroad layout and brings the dynamics of this exciting era to life.

Technology and functions: More than just a model

The technical features of the set are impressive across the board. The locomotive is equipped with the latest digital technology and offers a variety of functions that optimize operation on the model railroad. The carriages are also built to a high technical standard, which increases both the operating fun and the level of detail. The set is suitable for both analog and digital operation and offers flexible application options.

Design and realism

The locomotive and wagons impress with their realistic design. The locomotive is equipped with fine details such as remote-controlled pantographs and switchable cab lighting. The cars are characterized by precise lettering and the elaborate reproduction of signs of use, including the graffiti on one of the high side cars. The spring buffers and metal wheel sets on the wagons as well as the authentic color design make the set an eye-catcher on any model railway layout.

Conclusion: Perfect set for gauge 0 and era V

The Lenz 43300-80 0 freight train set is an authentic and versatile model for your 0-gauge layout. The detailed reproduction of the class 141 in combination with the high side wagons offers a perfect representation of a typical freight train of Era V. Whether in operation or as a collector's item - this set is a highlight for every model railroad enthusiast.
