The prototype of the LGB 45889 container car set

The RhB container cars are indispensable tools in freight traffic on the Swiss narrow gauge railroads. They are used to transport a wide variety of goods, from food to industrial products. With their versatility and efficient container technology, they make a significant contribution to the logistics of the Rhaetian Railway. The models presented here reflect the characteristic advertising line of the Swiss retail chain "coop®" and are designed in the current colors with the motifs "radish" and "pear".

The Rhaetian Railway - an icon of Swiss railroad history

The Rhaetian Railway (RhB) is one of the most famous narrow-gauge railroads in the world. Founded in 1889, it plays a central role in connecting remote regions of Switzerland with urban centers. Today, the RhB is not only an important transportation infrastructure, but also a tourist attraction known for its picturesque routes through the Alps. Its modern container wagons symbolize efficiency and innovation and set standards in logistics for narrow-gauge railroads.

Quality and design from LGB: In a class of its own

The LGB brand has stood for model railroads of the highest quality and detailed design for decades. The "COOP" container wagon set perfectly reflects this claim. LGB uses robust materials and careful workmanship to create models that not only look authentic, but also provide long-term enjoyment. With metal disk wheel sets, a well thought-out design and a paint scheme that is based on the original, these cars impress with their durability and aesthetics.

Era VI: Modern railroad history on your layout

Era VI covers the modern era of rail transport, which began around 2007 and continues to this day. It is characterized by optimized logistics processes, modern vehicle fleets and striking advertising lines. The RhB container wagons with the "coop®" motifs are a perfect example of this contemporary development and bring the spirit of current railroad history to your model railway layout.

Care and maintenance

To maintain the function and appearance of your models in the long term, regular care is recommended. Clean the wagons with a soft cloth and avoid aggressive cleaning agents that could damage the paintwork. The axles and couplings should be checked occasionally for ease of movement and lightly oiled if necessary. Thanks to the robust construction of LGB, these models are extremely low-maintenance and ideal for outdoor use.
