The Piko 24517 Gbs boxcar is a detailed reproduction of a typical freight car of the Polish State Railroad (PKP) from Era IV. With its prototypical paintwork and authentic lettering, this wagon is an indispensable model for all those who want to realistically represent the freight trains of the 1970s and 1980s on their H0 layout. The wagon offers a high level of detail, a robust design and is an ideal component of Era IV freight train sets.
The Gbs covered freight wagon is a classic type of wagon that was used for the transportation of various goods and was used in both national and international freight trains. The PKP used these wagons in Era IV for the safe transportation of goods that had to be protected from the weather. The Gbs design with its characteristic sliding doors and brown paintwork was a common sight on the tracks of Eastern Europe and an important part of the PKP freight fleet.
The model of the Gbs wagon impresses with its prototypical paintwork in PKP brown and the precise lettering, which captures all the typical features of the original. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 160 mm, this freight wagon is ideal for H0 freight trains and complements model railroad operation in Era IV. The detailed design of the doors and sliding doors, which can be opened, make the model particularly authentic and give it a high degree of realism on the layout.
The Piko Gbs wagon is designed for direct current operation (DC) and has an NEM shaft with close coupler link, which enables a close and prototypical connection to other wagons. This design ensures stable running even in longer freight trains and makes coupling and uncoupling easier. With a minimum radius of 358 mm, the wagon can be flexibly integrated into many system layouts and offers a wide range of possible uses in model railroad operation.
This freight wagon belongs to Era IV, which covers the period from the 1970s to the 1980s. This period was characterized by national and international freight traffic, and the PKP played an important role in the Eastern European rail network. The Gbs wagon is a typical representative of the freight traffic of this period and is ideal for model railroaders who want to authentically recreate the PKP and international freight traffic on their layout.
The model of the Gbs wagon is manufactured in H0 scale and fits perfectly on H0 layouts thanks to its length and detailed design. The robust construction and precise details make the wagon ideal for use in various freight train formations. It fits seamlessly into the look of Era IV layouts and contributes to the realistic appearance of model railroad operation.
The Piko 24517 Covered Goods Wagon Gbs is an excellent choice for model railroaders who want to expand their H0 layout with an authentic PKP goods wagon. With its prototypical paintwork, movable doors and high-quality workmanship, this model brings the atmosphere of Eastern European freight traffic of Era IV to the layout and is a valuable addition to any collection.
