Are you looking for a special freight car for your TT layout that captures an extraordinary chapter from the early postwar period? The Piko 47855 G02 covered freight car of the Deutsche Reichsbahn commemorates the makeshift cars that were used in connection with the first FDJ Germany-wide gathering in East Berlin.

The model features a G02 covered freight car with authentic “(-DR) UdSSR-Zone” lettering. The wood-grain side walls and the sharply defined printing give the car a prototypical appearance and make it an interesting one-of-a-kind addition to Era III freight trains.

G02 Covered Freight Car of the Deutsche Reichsbahn

During Pentecost 1950, numerous special trains were deployed because the available passenger cars were insufficient. To address this, the Deutsche Reichsbahn used provisionally converted freight cars, which are thematically represented in this model.

The intricate design, featuring freestanding handrails and crisp printing, ensures an authentic representation. The wood-grain finish of the side walls underscores the historical character of this special car.

A special model for Era III collectors

With its excellent running characteristics, TT close-coupling, and compact length, this car is ideal for historic Deutsche Reichsbahn train formations.
