PIKO 24555 - H0 Covered freight car G02, VEG Saatgut Erfurt, DR, Era III

The Piko 24555 is a type G02 boxcar in the special design for the transportation of seeds on behalf of the VEG Saatzucht Zierpflanzen Erfurt. The model is assigned to Era III of the German State Railroad (DR) and represents an attractive combination of agricultural use and railroad freight traffic of the early GDR era.

The wagon bears the historical logo of the state-owned estate and is therefore not only a visual highlight but also of historical interest. The fine engravings, extra handles and steps as well as the excellent rolling characteristics make this freight wagon a valuable addition for all DR collectors and company railroaders of the 1950s and 60s.

True to the original & variety of details

The wooden board structure of the wagon is finely engraved, the printing is razor-sharp and prototypical. The eye-catching VEG advertising logo is an authentic detail from GDR economic history and ensures a realistic appearance in the area of agricultural freight trains.
