Märklin 43167 Bymb 421 Express Train Car: DB Center Entrance Car in Era IV

The Märklin 43167 express train car is a detailed reproduction of a German Federal Railroad (DB) 2nd class passenger car. This so-called "center entry car" was a characteristic vehicle for light express trains (LS) and embodies the typical style of Era IV with its color scheme in ocean blue/ivory. Perfect for fans of historic passenger service around 1980.

The prototype: Type Bylb 421 center-entry car

The type Bylb 421, also known as the "Mittelleinstiegswagen", was specially developed for light express trains on the DB. With small tail lights at the top of the front and one-piece windows at the entrances, this coach was ideal for quick passenger changes. This model shows the operating condition around 1980 and perfectly complements historical train compositions.

Technically and visually sophisticated realization

The model impresses with its high-quality technology and numerous details:

• LED interior lighting fitted as standard: works in conjunction with the center-boarding control car and can be switched digitally.
• Current-conducting couplers: Ensure a seamless power supply for the lighting.
• End tail light inserts: Transparent red, for a realistic look.
• Type-specific underbody design: With a D 62s generator and double block brake.
• Heavy Minden-Deutz type bogies: For authentic driving behavior.
• Attachable parts: WC downpipes and reversible train control lines for a realistic presentation in the display case.

The wagon has a length over buffers of 28.2 cm and can be driven on with a minimum radius of 360 mm, making it flexible for use on H0 layouts.

Combination options for realistic train formations

The Bymb 421 ideally complements the center entrance control cars (item number 43337) as well as other express train cars (e.g. item number 43127) from the Märklin H0 assortment. Together with the class 38100 locomotive to go with them, you can recreate realistic and impressive Era IV train formations.

Conclusion: An indispensable car for Era IV enthusiasts

The Märklin 43167 Bymb 421 express train car combines a prototypical design with modern technology. With its high-quality workmanship, the built-in interior lighting, and the many possible combinations, this car will become a central part of any H0 model railroad layout.
