Shimmns 708 DB era IV telescopic hood wagon

The model is equipped with movable hood, NEM-coupler pockets and close coupling system, blackened wheels, prototypically printing and details and numerous factory-attached detail parts.

The telescopic hood wagon Shimmns 708 is being used for transporting steel coils. The wagon runs throughout Europe and can also be moved by railway ferry. Loading of the coils is being done by moving the hood parts. The wagon has been developed in the 1970s, and was produced in several editions. The cars are still in use today. Most cars were produced in the typical freight wagon brown livery, a lot of cars still show this colour today.
