Description

Quack & Salber 171301-090101-0001 TT Old Car Body as a Freight Shed – A Historic Eye-Catcher for Any Model Railroad

With the Quack & Salber 171301-090101-0001 kit, model builders receive a unique freight shed made from a historic railcar body. This highly detailed model is based on a Saxon G3-class freight car and is a versatile accessory for stations, depots, or as a historical landmark along the tracks.

A “Almost-Not-a-Kit” – Minimal Effort, Maximum Realism

With this set, Waggonfabrik Quack & Salber offers an innovative concept for model builders who want to create authentic scenes without having to perform time-consuming assembly work. The car body is already fully assembled, painted, and printed. Only the underlying car frame and the sleepers—precise laser-cut parts—can still be customized to individual preferences.

Historical authenticity thanks to a real-life prototype

The model is based on a historic freight car from the Royal Saxon State Railways (K.Sächs.Sts.E.B.). One of the last surviving examples of this type is currently being restored by the ISEG (Initiative for Saxon Railway History). To support this work, Waggonfabrik donates one euro to the ISEG for every kit sold.

Suitable for all eras

Thanks to its authentic design and realistic weathering options, the old car body can be used as a freight shed in various model railway scenarios. Whether in Era I through VI —this model looks great next to the track, as a shed, a garden arbor, or an abandoned relic.

Easy customization for perfect dioramas

The kit offers a wide range of options for customization. Particularly noteworthy are the included accessories, which can be assembled as “scrap metal” to achieve a particularly realistic effect. The set also contains individual old railroad ties that can be used to create a small access staircase.

Why the Quack & Salber 171301-090101-0001 kit is the perfect choice

This model is not only a visual highlight but also a symbol of the preservation of historic railway culture. The ability to age and customize the freight shed according to your own ideas makes this kit a great addition to any model railway layout.

Care and Handling

To achieve a durable and realistic look, it is recommended to refine the kit using weathering techniques such as dry brushing, washing, or pigment paints. The laser-cut parts can also be treated with wood stains or acrylic paints to achieve an even more realistic wood grain.
