Description
UIC-X 1st class express train carriage, type Az, of the Italian State Railways. Completely new design!
- Cars with separately attached plug-in parts and prototypical buffer height
- Version in grey Ardesia paint without aprons
Prototype: UIC-X cars are the name given to more than 6,145 express train cars of the German Federal Railway (DB), which entered service from 1952 onwards and, in some cases, operated for half a century on express trains and in intercity service. These cars offered a level of comfort previously unknown in Europe. The UIC-X cars were immediately put into high-quality express train service, particularly on international services and in transit and interzone traffic to West Berlin and the GDR. Very quickly, the existing express train network (until 1956 with the then first and second class cars, after which only first class was used) was converted to UIC cars. By the mid-1960s, this car design had replaced virtually all pre-war cars from express train service.
The Italian state railways Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) – now Trenitalia – and the Spanish state railway RENFE purchased cars very similar to the DB vehicles.
