Tillig 523301 TT Selbstentladewagen Facs, 3, DR, Ep. IV

Tillig 523301 TT Facs self-unloading wagon - Third DR series wagon for realistic bulk freight trains

With the Tillig 523301 Facs self-unloading wagon, the freight wagon series from the 502347 display is extended by a third authentic DR wagon from Era IV. This bulk freight car is an example of the typical freight traffic of the German State Railroad in the 1970s and 1980s and is a must for model railroaders who value prototypical fidelity and variety in the car fleet. Ideal for combining with other Facs cars for realistic block trains in TT scale.

Technical information about the Tillig 523301 freight wagon

The wagon belongs to the nominal size TT (scale 1:120) and represents a self-unloading wagon of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) in Era IV. Designed for 2-conductor direct current operation, the model is operated in analog mode. Neither digital decoders nor sound functions are installed. The length over buffers is 159 mm, and thanks to the NEM coupler pocket with close coupler kinematics, realistic car spacing and reliable operation on the layout is guaranteed.

True-to-original design and precise production

The third wagon in the Facs series impresses with its exact reproduction of the side flaps, fine engravings and correct Era IV livery with DR lettering. Especially in combination with the other wagons from the 502347 display, an authentic picture of heavy bulk freight trains in the GDR freight traffic of the time is created. The high-quality production ensures durability and operational reliability.

True-to-original history: The Facs of the German State Railroad

Self-unloading wagons such as the Facs were designed for the rapid transportation of bulk goods such as coal or ore. Their unloading technology enabled fast loading and unloading in loading facilities and on factory premises. The wagons shaped the image of freight transport in the GDR and were used throughout the country in the DR's area of operation - individually or in block trains with specific loads.

Compatibility and train formation

Equipped with an NEM shaft and KK kinematics, the wagon is compatible with many TT models. The combination with matching DR locomotives - such as the BR 110, BR 118 or BR 132 - ensures harmonious train formations on your layout. Varied and authentic freight trains can also be created with other Facs wagons from the series.

Scope of delivery

A single DR Facs self-unloading wagon in Era IV design is supplied. This is the third series wagon from the Tillig display 502347. The model is ready to assemble and ready to use for your TT layout.

Target group and purchase arguments
