• Extensive light and sound functions with a built-in decoder in the dining car.
• Dining car includes table lamps that can be controlled separately.
• All of the cars include built-in LED interior lighting.

Model: The dining car has an mfx digital decoder and extensive light and sound functions. The table lamps, area lighting, vestibule lighting, and bar lighting can each be controlled separately. Both cars have factory-installed LED interior lighting with warm white LEDs. Both of the cars have current-conducting close couplers. The interior lighting works only in conjunction with the dining car and it can be turned on and off digitally using a decoder. The specified sequence of cars must be maintained for this purpose. The roof shapes, side walls, underbodies, and skirting are specific to the car types. The trucks are type Minden-Deutz with brake shoes, magnet rail brakes, and separately applied generators. The train destination signs are imprinted on the cars.

The minimum radius for operation is 360 mm / 14-3/16".

Total length over the buffers approximately 57 cm / 22-7/16".

One-time series.
