The prototype: Sdggmrss (T3000e) - flexibility in freight transportation

The Sdggmrss articulated pocket wagon is one of the most modern carrier wagons for combined freight transport. These wagons are used to transport semi-trailers, containers and swap bodies efficiently. Their design enables a high load capacity and offers flexibility for different types of cargo. CFL Cargo, a leading provider of European freight transport, uses these wagons for the cross-border transportation of goods. The operating condition of this model corresponds to 2021.

Detailed design and high-quality workmanship

The model of the Trix 24473 articulated pocket wagon is constructed mostly of metal and impresses with its detailed reproduction. The two halves of the carrying car are movably mounted on a center bogie, which reproduces the prototypical articulated structure. Side folding latches, which are fitted ex works and can be folded up, allow containers and swap bodies to be transported. Numerous separately applied details such as steps, brake lines, handrails and air tanks lend the model additional authenticity.

Loading and design

The model is loaded with two curtainsider semi-trailers from the Mars forwarding company, which have been faithfully reproduced. The pure green basic colouring of the wagon harmonizes perfectly with the modern look of the semi-trailers and makes this pocket wagon a visual highlight on any layout. The Y25 type bogies and the NEM-compliant buffer height underline the high-quality design.

Technical highlights

The technical features of the model are impressive. The wagon is equipped with brackets for kingpins in high and low versions. Separately attachable parts such as shunting steps and air tanks enhance the attention to detail. The coupling system is based on an NEM coupling shaft with KK kinematics, which enables a realistic wagon connection. With a length over buffers of 39.3 cm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the model is suitable for both large and small layouts.
