Liliput L133865 H0 3-piece CFL "KISS" electric multiple unit: Modern regional transportation from Luxembourg

The Liliput L133865 H0 3-part CFL "KISS" electric multiple unit train brings modern Luxembourg regional transport to the model railway layout. With its exact reproduction, realistic color scheme and high-quality technical equipment, this model is an enrichment for every modern H0 layout. The multiple unit has the train number 2319 and shows the train destination display "RE11 LUXEMBOURG", matching the operating status of 2017.

The prototype: The KISS multiple unit of the CFL

Chemins de Fer Luxembourgeois (CFL ) ordered eight KISS multiple units from Stadler Rail in 2010, which have been operating on the route between Luxembourg City and Koblenz as the RE11 since December 2014. These modern double-decker multiple-unit trains are optimally designed for cross-border services and offer passengers a high level of comfort. It is particularly noteworthy that these trains are operated in multiple traction with the single-decker FLIRT multiple units of DB Regio Südwest - a combination that is unique in Europe.

In 2017, Stadler Rail delivered eleven more three-car KISS multiple units to CFL, which are technically equipped with both the PZB 90 train control system used in Germany and the ETCS Level 1 used in Luxembourg. This enables seamless integration into the international rail network.

The CFL: Luxembourg's state railroad with an international network

The CFL is Luxembourg's national railroad company and operates both national and cross-border connections. Thanks to state-of-the-art vehicles such as the KISS multiple-unit train, it can guarantee high transport capacity and first-class travel comfort. The use of these double-decker trains is an important part of the growing European rail traffic.

Liliput: Highest quality in model making

The renowned manufacturer Liliput is known for its exact model train replicas. The models impress with their true-to-original colors, the finest printing and excellent driving characteristics. The L133865 KISS CFL multiple unit offers the highest model railway quality with its numerous technical functions, detailed interior and high-quality workmanship.

Technical equipment and functionality

The model has two powerful motors located in both power cars. This ensures even power distribution and high tractive power. The multiple unit is designed for alternating current (AC) operation and is equipped with a modern ESU LokPilot digital decoder. It supports the Motorola/Märklin format as well as mfx, which allows easy integration into digital model railroad systems.

The interior lighting provides a realistic representation of the passenger area. The multiple unit has a current-carrying coupling that ensures a reliable power supply for the lighting in all of the cars. The model can also be switched to overhead line operation, which offers additional flexibility in operation.

A three-pointed headlight and two direction-dependent marker lights allow prototypical representation in operation. The model has a length over buffers of 891 mm and can already be used on a minimum radius of 360 mm. Please note that full functionality is not guaranteed on Märklin M track.

Design and color scheme

The multiple unit is designed in the typical CFL paint scheme. The finely detailed lettering with the road numbers 0023 191-8, 0023 193-4, and 0023 192-6 gives the model an authentic look. The train destination display "RE11 LUXEMBOURG" is true to the original and makes the multiple unit a realistic representation of its prototype.

Possible uses on the model railroad layout

The CFL's KISS multiple unit is perfect for modern model railway layouts depicting current regional traffic in Luxembourg and neighboring countries. Thanks to its flexible application options, it can be used realistically in commuter traffic as well as in cross-border regional traffic. This model cuts a particularly fine figure at stations or in combination with other local trains.

Care and maintenance

Regular cleaning is recommended to keep the model in perfect condition. Dust can be carefully removed with a soft brush or compressed air spray. The moving parts, especially couplings and drives, should be checked at regular intervals and lightly lubricated with special model railway oil.

Conclusion: A must for modern model railways

The Liliput L133865 H0 3-part CFL "KISS" electric multiple unit impresses with its excellent workmanship, its authentic color scheme and its modern technical equipment. This model brings the current Luxembourg regional traffic to your model railroad layout and is a highlight for collectors and model railroaders thanks to its high-quality mechanics and true-to-original printing. If you are looking for a modern, efficient local train, this model is the perfect addition.
