Model details:

- Double traction: Coupling bars are included with each model, which makes a double traction possible. In the double traction, for better handling, train 1 is to swap cars M1 and M2 (both motorized heads coupled together). On the boards of these two motorized heads can be switched off by plugging an enclosed plug into the interface, the light between the trains.
- Prepared for interior lighting
- excellent handling characteristics due to 5-pol. Engine with two flywheels and traction tires
- detailed model reproduction and fine printing
- 6-pin. Interfaces NEM 651 in the power cars

Electric multiple unit TGV Duplex Carmillon 10-1324 10-piece

Kato

The LGV Sud-Est line from Paris to Lyon is the most heavily loaded high-speed line in France and has almost reached its capacity limit since its opening in 1981. To alleviate this problem, two train units each were coupled together, but even that did not provide sufficient passenger capacity. There was only the possibility to build the trains higher. That was the idea for the TGV Duplex, where passengers should sit on two levels. This increased passenger capacity by 45% compared to a one-story TGV of the same length. As with all other TGV train types, two TGV duplex train units can be paired. With the duplex began the third generation of French high-speed trains. With two seating levels and a capacity of 545 seats per train, the Duplex offers the highest seating capacity of all TGV trainsets. The duplex multiple units now provide the highest transport performance in the TGV system.

- Double traction: Coupling bars are included with each model, which makes a double traction possible. In double traction, for better driveability, train 1 is to swap cars M1 and M2 (both motorized heads coupled together). On the boards of these two motorized heads can be switched off by plugging an enclosed plug into the interface, the light between the trains.
- 6-pin. Interfaces NEM 651 in the power cars

Hobbytrain

Seven locomotives of the series V36 received between 1955 and 1959 extensive conversions to be used in one-man operation can. Because the ride with the rather tall stem ahead was always a bit problematic and the view from this position was only possible to a limited extent, they were given a pulpit on the driver's cab. The locomotive drivers could now see because of their higher position forward and backward over the other cars. The locomotives of the V36 series were used for a variety of services. Among other things, Deutsche Post used its own V36 with Posthorn logo for years. Like the original Wehrmacht locomotives, the new V36.4 was also designed for use in double traction.

Model Features:
- Chassis and hood made of metal
- 5-pole motor with flywheel
- Drive on all axes
- 6-pin interface NEM 651 (for decoder with angled or flexible plug)
- LED lighting white in the direction of travel
- Handlebars ladders etc. as etched parts
- Vorbilgerechte implementation of different design differences or epochs (2-light, 3-light, front bonnet, exhaust, tanks, etc.)

In April 1973, representatives of various transport companies met to jointly commission a modern light rail vehicle. In January 1974, the first 30 vehicles were ordered.

By the mid-nineties more than 12 city railcars had been built as 6-axle or 8-axle vehicles for more than 12 different public transport companies. Many public transport companies still use the Stadtbahn type M tram.

Swiss sliding wall wagon 4-axle Habils - SBB Series 31 85 275 0 100-199

In 1975, an order was placed for 100 4-axle sliding wall wagons to the Swiss Schindler Waggon AG. While the conception with the 4-piece. Sliding walls was maintained, the entire construction was much stronger than the built in France predecessor models. The sample selection was created in collaboration with our Swiss agency Arwico AG. For this reason, some selected models (item H23453) will only be available exclusively from Arwico.
