Märklin 87620 Ba 28 Car Set: Bottle Green DB Express Train Cars in Era III

The Märklin Ba 28 car set (item number 87620) brings the elegant express train cars of the German Federal Railroad (DB) from the early 1950s to your Z-gauge layout. With fine detailing and authentic paint schemes, this set is a must for fans of Era III.

The prototype: Express train cars of use group 29

The Ba 28 and Ba 29 express train cars were developed at the end of the 1920s as a standard design for high-quality long-distance service. These cars were characterized by their spacious compartments and flexible class layout. After the Second World War, they continued to be used by the German Federal Railroad (DB) and were given the characteristic bottle green paint scheme. The set recreates the operating condition of the cars around 1951.

Detailed and high-quality realization

The model is a completely new design and impresses with its fine detailing and high-quality workmanship. The carriages are made of high-quality plastic and have a reproduction of the interior fittings. All of the wheels are nickel-plated black and the lettering is prototypical. The bottle green colour scheme underlines the historical character of Era III. With a total length over buffers of approx. 450 mm, the set makes an impressive appearance on any Z-gauge layout.

Possible combinations and use

The set includes five cars, including two 3rd class express train cars (C4ü-28), two mixed 1st, 2nd and 3rd class cars (ABC4ü-29) and a baggage car (Pw4ü-29). It is ideal for depicting authentic Era III express trains and harmonizes perfectly with steam locomotives such as the BR 01 or BR 44.

Conclusion: A highlight for Era III enthusiasts

The Märklin 87620 Ba 28 car set is a carefully designed model set that perfectly captures the aesthetics and elegance of the early DB express train cars. It is the ideal addition to historic Z-gauge layouts and a jewel for any collection.
