7710022 H0 810 328-5 diesel railcar with sidecar, CD, Era V, DC sound: A classic of Czech regional transportation

The 7710022 H0 Czech State Railways (CD) 810 328-5 diesel rail car with sidecar is a detailed model that captures the regional railroad atmosphere of Era V on any H0 model railroad layout. With its classic design, extensive equipment and precise workmanship, this railcar is an enrichment for model railroaders who appreciate authenticity and functionality in equal measure.

The prototype: A tried and tested railcar for local traffic

To replace the outdated M 131.1 series railcars, the Czechoslovak State Railways (ČSD) procured the M 152.0 series of two-axle diesel railcars from 1975. Powered by a 155 kW six-cylinder in-line engine, these vehicles reached a maximum speed of 80 km/h and offered 56 seats in the passenger area. The robust design and reliable technology made the railcars indispensable means of transportation on secondary and regional lines.

Over the years, numerous color variants were created, with the variant with the beige belly band establishing itself on Czechoslovakian State Railways in the 1980s. After the division of Czechoslovakia in 1993, the railcars were transferred to Czech State Railways ČD, among others, where they were used on numerous branch lines. Many of these vehicles are still a familiar sight on Czech regional services today.

Era V: the transition to modern operating structures

Era V, which began around 1986, was characterized by restructuring and modernization in railroad operations. During this time, the Czech State Railways increasingly relied on tried and tested vehicles such as the 810 diesel railcar, which impressed with its versatility and reliability even in difficult track conditions. The model precisely reproduces this important period in Czech regional transportation and fits perfectly into layouts with a focus on regional train connections.
