Märklin 82396 Beet Train Extension Set: Authentic VGH Freight Cars in Era IV

The Märklin 82396 Beet Train extension set is an ideal extension for Z-gauge layouts that represent Era IV agricultural freight service. With two detailed Eo 17 open freight cars loaded with turnips, this set brings rural flair and authenticity to your model railroad layout.

The prototype: Beet transportation in Era IV

The Eo 17 open freight cars without hand brakes were typical vehicles for agricultural freight traffic and were frequently used to transport turnips in the 1970s and 1980s. This set represents the condition of the cars in Era IV and is modeled after the vehicles of the Grafschaft Hoya (VGH) transportation company, which were known regionally for transporting beets.

Detailed and high-quality realization

The model comprises two differently numbered wagons, which are elaborately printed and equipped with realistic beet loads. The wagons are finely detailed and the replica load ensures an authentic appearance. With an overall length over buffers of approx. 94 mm, the wagons are compact and ideally suited for operation on Z-gauge layouts.

Possible combinations and use

The set perfectly complements the 81773 beet train set and expands its capacity for realistic freight train compositions. It is ideal for scenarios that recreate seasonal agricultural traffic in rural regions and brings variety and authenticity to the layout.
