With the Piko Halberstadt2nd class center entry coach, PIKO is expanding its range of historical Reichsbahn vehicles with another indispensable passenger coach from Era IV. This car was used for decades on the main and branch lines of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) and is now available as a detailed model for direct current systems.

Detailing & equipment - realistic down to the last detail

The car is equipped with an individually designed interior, free-standing steps and handrails as well as very good rolling characteristics. The interior lighting can be retrofitted (matching set available separately), which also makes the car suitable for realistic night or half-shadow operation scenarios.

Prototype: Halberstadt coach - the backbone of DR passenger service

In the 1970s and 1980s, the Halberstadt mid-entry coaches formed the backbone of local transport in the GDR. As robust, universally applicable passenger coaches, they were often used with class 110, 112 or 118 locomotives - a familiar sight on the tracks of the Deutsche Reichsbahn.

Model railroad operation & compatibility

With a clearance of 303 mm and a minimum radius of 358 mm, the car is ideally suited for all common DC systems. The NEM shaft coupler with close coupler link ensures reliable operation in combination with other cars or matching locomotives.
