Hanging bench is an old mining term. In pre-industrial mining, after the transition to underground mining, ore was hauled to the surface from simple winch shafts. Baskets, barrels or buckets made of wood were used as conveyor vessels. These were "attached" to the hoisting cable underground and set down above ground in order to "knock them off" the cable again. The hanging bench with its winding tower is inspired by those in the former Zollern and Minister Achenbach colliery. The steel and brick design of the hanging bench is typical of architecture around 1900. The model has three unloading points located under the building. The building itself stands on steel columns, giving the whole an open, non-solid appearance. With its airy steel construction, the winding tower is a typical example of a strut framework that can still be seen in many places. Our model has a movable sheave.

With the extension set MU_N-i00071, the hanging bench and machine house can be coupled and motorized.

In some mines the administration building was combined with a laundry room. Our model is a representation of such a building and is designed in typical Wilhelminian style architecture. The combination of both functions in one building reduces the space required, including on the facility. The kit requires experience in model building.

The boiler hall is the building in which the steam boilers for driving the machines are located in the machine house (MU_N-i00070).

Novelty 2023: The DB IC cars as a completely new design by PIKO in a scale of 1:160. The groundbreaking concept of the IC '79 was introduced by the Bundesbahn at the beginning of the 1979 summer timetable with the well-known slogan "Every hour, every class". This new approach became necessary because the purely first-class Intercity services were no longer economically viable at this point due to the ongoing decline in passengers. With the introduction of the second class of carriages, the frequency was increased to an hourly rhythm. The desired reduction in travel times was achieved by expanding many routes and increasing maximum speeds. To further save time, these accelerated trains no longer had luggage and mail cars and were divided into 1st class, dining car and 2nd class blocks to enable quick changes at the junction stations. After the success of the concept, the IC network was expanded from four to five lines in 1985. To this day, the IC represents an important backbone of long-distance rail transport.
