The Tillig 05973 H0e set of 2 Rf4 narrow-gauge rolling stock is an exciting new design for narrow-gauge fans and offers an authentic reproduction of the historic rolling stock of the German State Railroad (DR) from Era III. With their precise implementation and high level of detail, the rolling stock makes it possible to realistically transport standard-gauge freight cars on your H0e model railroad layout.
Rolling cars such as the Rf4 were essential means of transportation for transporting standard-gauge freight cars directly on narrow-gauge tracks. This solution made the time-consuming reloading of goods superfluous and significantly increased the efficiency of freight transportation. The Deutsche Reichsbahn often used these rolling wagons in rural areas where narrow-gauge railroads were the main connection between villages and larger towns.
The trolleys were robustly built and could easily transport heavy loads such as loaded freight wagons. They had special support surfaces, wheel recesses and safety devices to securely fix the standard-gauge wagons during the journey.
Era III (1945-1970) was a time of reconstruction and modernization of the railroad system in Germany. Narrow-gauge railroads played an important role in the economic supply of rural regions. Rolling stock such as the Rf4 was an innovative solution for seamlessly integrating freight traffic between normal and narrow-gauge railroads. They made it possible for the Deutsche Reichsbahn to efficiently handle freight traffic without delays.
The renowned model railroad manufacturer Tillig has created a model with the Rf4 narrow gauge rolling stock set of 2 that impresses with its precise workmanship and high level of detail. The platforms of the trolleys are finely engraved and show the typical structure of the prototype. The wheel recesses and holding devices are faithfully reproduced and ensure an authentic appearance.
The robust running gear is detailed and has reproductions of the brake systems and other technical components. The lettering and road numbers were applied exactly according to historical models, giving the trolleys a high degree of authenticity.
The set consists of two roller carriages with a total length over buffers (LüP) of 210 mm. Both carriages are equipped with an in-house coupler pocket, which ensures a reliable connection and prototypical operation. The roller carriages are designed for use on narrow-gauge railway systems (H0e) with 2-conductor direct current and are ideal for mixed freight trains or industrial train scenarios.
Thanks to the robust design and precise mechanics, the trolleys run stably and smoothly even on tight radii, making them particularly flexible to use.
The roller carriages are painted in a typical grey color, which is characteristic of DR freight wagons in Era III. The precisely applied road numbers and technical information correspond to the historical model and contribute to the high authenticity of the model. These details make the set an eye-catcher on any H0e model railway layout.
The wheels and axles should be cleaned regularly to ensure that the trolleys run reliably in the long term. The couplings and safety devices should also be checked regularly to ensure smooth operation.
The Tillig 05973 H0e set of 2 narrow gauge Rf4 rolling stock is an indispensable model for anyone who wants to realistically depict historical freight traffic on narrow gauge railroads. With its detailed realization and high quality workmanship, this set offers an authentic playing experience and enriches every layout. Whether for agricultural freight traffic or heavy haulage - these rolling stock cars are a highlight for all fans of Era III.
