The striking pebble gray/blood orange paint scheme, combined with innovative technology and detailed design, makes this model an asset to any H0 layout.

The prototype of the Trix 23691: A milestone on the Swiss railroad

The Swiss Express, which first went on the rails in 1975, was an innovative solution for long-distance transportation on the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). With its eye-catching paint scheme and state-of-the-art technical standards, it represented the future of train travel. The large-capacity coaches included in the set, type A (1st class) and type B (2nd class), are typical representatives of this era and perfectly matched to the Genève-Lausanne-Bern-Zurich HB train route.

These coaches were specially developed to offer passengers a high level of comfort and efficiency. The car road numbers 2 and 12 emphasize the authenticity and prototypical character of this set.

Excellent quality from Trix

The Trix 23691 passenger car set is a completely new design of the EW III car family and will impress you with its precise workmanship and a large number of separately applied details. The combination of high quality and attention to detail makes this set a real highlight for model railroad enthusiasts.

Era IV: Progress and innovation

Era IV was a time of change and further development in European rail transportation.

The Trix 23691 passenger car set embodies these characteristics and brings the atmosphere of the 1970s back to life on your model railroad layout.

Design and paint scheme

The pebble gray/blood orange paint scheme of the Swiss Express is an unmistakable trademark of this train composition. This color scheme was revolutionary and gave the Swiss Express a modern and dynamic appearance. The imprinted car running signs and classification numbers, supplemented by the enclosed sliding picture sets with additional numbers, allow a prototypical train composition.

A variety of expansion options

The Trix 23691 set can be perfectly combined with other car sets, including the main Trix 23690 set. By using up to five additional sets, model railroaders can create a prototypical 14-piece set of the Swiss Express. In addition, locomotives such as the Trix 25420 and switching coupler cars (item number 24650) are available to complete the train.
