The prototype: Halberstadt center entry coach in 1st/2nd class

The 1st/2nd class coach offers a flexible seating layout for passengers and is ideal for use on regional services. The mint green paint scheme, which was typical for Era V (1990-2006), symbolizes the fresh style and modernization of DB AG during this time.

DB AG in Era V: progress and modernization

Era V marked a significant change in German rail transport. With the founding of DB AG, the rail network was modernized, new colour schemes were introduced and the rolling stock was optimized. The Halberstadt mid-entry coaches in mint green livery are a typical example of this progress and were mainly used in local traffic on branch lines.
