Thanks to the robust die-cast metal construction and the fine details, this set is a highlight for model railroaders who value historical authenticity.

Historical prototype of the "troop transport" train of the German State Railroad

The class 42 was developed during the Second World War for the transportation of troops and military material. These locomotives and wagons were designed to be robust and functional in order to meet the demands of war. The train transported both officers and men. The specially converted 1st/2nd class passenger coach served as an officer's coach, while the two 3rd class coaches were intended for enlisted men. The carriages were painted in camouflage to adapt them to the military requirements of the time. The model brings these historical features to the model world true to the original and commemorates an important time in railroad history.
