This model vehicle brings Freiburg’s urban public transit system in miniature form directly to your model railway layout. It is a lovingly crafted replica of a tram as used in regular city service. Ideal for model railway enthusiasts who place special value on realistic and regionally specific trams.

Product Details

The model is built to H0 scale (1:87) and is made of high-quality plastic. It is a fully pre-assembled ready-to-run model. The Siemens Combino represents a modern variant of the low-floor tram and was specifically designed for use in urban areas. Rietze has faithfully reproduced the prototype in every detail, offering a high degree of precision and authenticity with this model.

Design & Workmanship

The model’s color scheme exactly matches the VAG Freiburg prototype with its eye-catching BÖ Shoes advertisement. Fine lines, realistic lettering, and the distinctive design make the model a visual highlight. The glazing, bodywork, and even small design elements such as the pantographs and windshield wipers are reproduced with great attention to detail—a clear hallmark of the high quality from Rietze.

Historical Background

The Siemens Combino is a low-floor tram series that has been in production since 1996. VAG Freiburg began operating seven-section bidirectional cars of this type in 1999. Due to design flaws, the vehicles were taken out of service in 2004 and refurbished by 2007. The Combino Advanced series, to which this model belongs, was delivered in 2004 and 2006 and is characterized by reinforced car bodies and a rounder nose shape. The eye-catching BÖ Shoes advertisement was designed by the Schwitzke ID design agency and gives the vehicle a unique look.

Compatibility & Expansion Options

The model is ideal for H0-scale layouts and pairs perfectly with urban scenes, stops, or operational scenarios. Enhance your layout with additional Rietze models or streetcars for a realistic overall look.
