Roco 6210246 H0 Silberling control car Citybahn, DB, Ep. IV-V, DCC Product Details
Roco 6210246 H0 Silberling Citybahn control car, DB, Ep. IV-V, DCC - Icon of local transport in a striking City-Bahn design
With the Roco 6210246, you can bring a real cult vehicle of the German Federal Railroad to your H0 layout: the BDnf 784 class commuter control car in the legendary City-Bahn design. Used on the Cologne-Gummersbach pilot line, this cab control car embodies the successful transformation of regional transportation in the 1980s. This DC version with DCC digital decoder offers extensive lighting functions and a striking design - a must for fans of German railroad history.
City-Bahn - The successful project of the German Federal Railroad
The eye-catching orange and silver-grey color scheme of the City-Bahn was introduced in 1984 to make the Cologne-Gummersbach line more attractive. With upgraded push-pull trains, frequent service and an eye-catching design, DB succeeded in creating a showcase project that helped to save many branch lines. The BDnf 784 with luggage compartment shown here was an integral part of this concept - today faithfully reproduced on a scale of 1:87.
Digital equipment with extensive lighting technology
The control car has an integrated PluX16 digital decoder for DCC operation. The direction of travel-dependent light change (white/red) works in both analog and digital operation. In addition, the train destination display can be illuminated separately in digital operation. Retrofitting with interior lighting (item no. 4000005) is also possible.
Detailed design and high compatibility
The car is equipped with an NEM 362 coupler pocket and close coupler link and can be perfectly combined with other Silberlingen or City-Bahn cars - ideally with the matching class 218. The fully finished interior completes the high-quality overall picture.
