Brawa 44515 - Twindexx IC2-Middle Car 1st CLocomotive DB VI AC EXT

�IC 2� is the new name for the DB Fernverkehr AG TWINDEXX Vario� trains introduced following the timetable change on 13.12.2015. Back in 2010, Bombardier Transportation received the first order for 27 five-part double-deck trains in combination with the BR 146.5 locomotives from a previously-concluded framework contract with DB AG for a total of 800 double-deck trains. An order was placed for a further 17 trains in March 2015. The TWINDEXX Vario� is a further development of the tried-andtrusted double-deck platform from G�rlitz. Each train has 468 seats, 70 of which are in 1st class as well as 10 bicycle parking spaces. The top speed of the trains is 160 km/h. The IC 2 will gradually replace all previous IC trains in the new long-distance traffic concept from DB Fernverkehr AG. Following the timetable change, the first routes for these trains are Leipzig � Norddeich Mole, Dresden �Koeln and Koblenz � Norddeich Mole. The BRAWA models of the TWINDEXX Vario� IC double-deck Coach es can be ideally combined with the TRAXX BR 146.5 electric locomotive from DB AG (Order No. 43976 � 43979) to create a train that is true to the original.
