16603 2nd class passenger coach with baggage compartment BDghws, DR, Ep. IV - Versatile companion for local traffic

The 2nd class passenger coach with luggage compartment BDghws of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) is an indispensable part of many train compositions of Era IV. With its combination of seating and luggage compartments, it is perfectly suited to transporting both passengers and luggage on regional and inter-regional services. This model authentically brings the charm of the 1970s and 1980s to your model railroad layout.

The prototype: Versatility in local and regional transportation

In Era IV (approx. 1965-1990), the German State Railroad relied on cars such as the BDghws to efficiently transport both passengers and luggage. The wagon was used in mixed trains on secondary and main lines and its flexible design contributed to the efficiency of passenger and luggage transportation. Typical routes were connections between medium-sized towns and rural regions.

Detailed replica and precise printing

The model of the BDghw impresses with its finely detailed replica, which includes even the smallest elements such as doors, window frames and ventilation grilles. The precise printing of the DR-typical lettering and road numbers gives the car an authentic look that makes it an ideal addition to Era IV train compositions.

Can be retrofitted with interior lighting

The model is equipped with retrofittable interior lighting (suitable: item no. 08866) so that you can realistically depict atmospheric scenes even in the dark. The detailed interior offers you the opportunity to create realistic scenes with passengers or luggage.

Perfect addition to your train compositions

Thanks to the coupler pocket and close coupler kinematics in accordance with the NEM standard, the BDghws can be easily integrated into existing trains. It is an ideal match for other DR Era IV passenger coaches as well as typical locomotives such as the BR 110 or BR 118.

Typical applications

The BDghws coach was used in local trains, regional services and mixed freight/passenger trains. Its function as a combined seating and luggage coach made it particularly flexible and predestined it for routes with changing passenger and luggage transport requirements.

Conclusion: A versatile model for realistic train operation

The 2nd class passenger coach with luggage compartment BDghws is a versatile and faithfully reproduced coach that should not be missing from any collection of DR models. With its high degree of faithfulness to the prototype and the option of interior lighting, it is an ideal model for varied scenes in regional train services.
