Comment: Many European railroads purchased powered rail cars for Trans-Europe-Express-service (TEE) that fulfilled the highest demands for comfort and that offered 1st class seating only. The DB decided on a powered rail car train based on the "Kruckenberg" VT 137 155 and the successful V 200. The basic configuration consisted of two powered end cars as well as five intermediate cars. This train could be expanded to a ten-unit consist by adding additional intermediate cars. The drive gear came from the V 200: Each powered end car was equipped with a 1,100 horsepower motor that transmitted propulsion to the wheel sets in the power truck by means of a hydraulic transmission and universal joint shafts. A 296 horsepower auxiliary diesel motor with a generator connected directly to it ensured electrical power exclusively for the galley and the air conditioning. The following was delivered in 1957/58: 19 powered end cars (VT 11 5001-5019), 23 compartment cars (VM 11 5101-5123), eight open seating cars (VM 11 -5201- 5208), eight bar cars (VM 11 5301-5308), and nine dining cars (VM 11 5401-5409). The "Helvetia" linked the North of Germany to Switzerland since the start of the TEE network on June 2, 1957 and was among the "founding members" and thereby the first of the TEE trains. Initially, the new class VT 11.5 TEE diesel powered rail car trains were available for this routing (Hamburg - Frankfurt - Mannheim - Basle - Zürich). Yet as early as April 12, 1965 the Helvetia advanced to the first locomotive-hauled TEE in Germany, because with increasing electrification more and more TEE trains were converted to locomotive-hauled trains. The last of the TEE trains to be converted was the "Mediolanum" on August 20, 1972. From 1971 on, the TEE sets, designated as the class 601/901 from 1968 on, found new activity in the lntercity network. With the introduction of 2nd class in IC service, the class 601 powered rail car trains were once again without work for the summer schedule of 1979. A large part of these units was in use again in tourist service starting in the summer of 1980. These units with their elegant form ran as the "Alpen-See-Express" / "Alps-Sea-Express" from Hamburg and Dortmund to different South German and Austrian vacation regions, sometimes even as double units on certain parts of routes. The last use of the former TEE powered rail car trains as the "Alpen-See-Express" took place on April 9, 1988. Shortly after that, all of the trains were retired.

The 22261 basic set can extended to a prototypical 7-part train with the 23261 add-on car set. An AC model of this basic set can be found in the Trix H0 assortment under item number 37604.

Detailed, affordable beginner's model.

Comment: With the LINT (= Leichter Innovativer Nahverkehrs-Triebwagen / Lightweight Innovative Commuter Service Powered Rail Car) Alstom LHB, Inc. emerged relatively late on the stage of builders of regional powered rail cars. Four variants are currently being marketed internationally under the label "Coradia LINT": The LINT 27 is a one-part, four-axle powered rail car, while LINT 41 six-axle and two-axle versions are coming along. The LINT 54 is being offered with eight axles as a two-part unit but with longer car bodies. It can be expanded to the LINT 81 by inserting another motored center car. The number behind the name in each case gives the approximate train length in meters. The design of the LINT is set up modular fashion based on the criteria of modern locomotive and car construction so that adjustments can be done at any time to meet customer wishes. On the underbody, welded reinforced steel shapes are used at the ends of the cars. The car bodies are constructed as "warp resistant tubes" mostly of non-rusting types of steel using welded lightweight steel fabrication methods. Fiberglass-reinforced plastic parts bolted and cemented under the end of the car provide a reinforced steel construction for the required safety. A combination rubber-air suspension ensures the required riding comfort. The heart of the drive system is a 6-cylinder diesel motor from MTU with 315 kilowatts / 422 horsepower output. A hydrodynamic Voith fluid transmission transfers the motor power to the two driving wheel sets in the truck. To date in 2000/2001 the DB has placed 30 units of the LINT 27 into service as the class 640. As the first private railroad in Germany "vectus" ordered another ten units (VT -201-210) at the end of 2004 for use on the Lahntal Line as well as the Unterwesterwald Line and the Oberwesterwald Line. In 2005, the Veolia subsidiary HEX (Harz-Elbe-Express) put seven LINT 27 as road numbers VT 870-876 into operation for service on the lines Halberstadt - Blankenburg and Könnern - Bernburg (Saale). After winning the bidding for the 3Länder Line (connections in the Three States Corner of Germany between Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse, and North Rhine-Westphalia) in December of 2014, the Hessian State Railroad (HLB) took over the LINT 27 units from "Vectus", gradually modernized them, and had them painted in the HLB colors.

Comment: The Three-Phase Current Pioneer. The class 120 marked the technological change to three-phase current propulsion. This principle promised compact motors largely free of parts that would wear out, without commutators, commutator rings, brushes, and mechanical contacts. Because a wide torque range and rpm range can be mastered with three-phase current technology, the performance specifications for this new development were broadly formulated. The class 120 was designed to pull 200 km/h or 125 mph fast InterCity trains and 5,400 metric ton freight trains and be equipped with push/pull controls and electric regenerative brakes. In 1977, the DB ordered five experimental units, which were thoroughly tested on test stands, on test runs, and in operational use. Startup, tractive effort, acceleration, running characteristics, braking power, power consumption, and stability were part of these tests. Comparison tests with other makes of locomotives as well as startup tests on the Lötschberg and Semmering grades confirmed the effectiveness of the technology. The speed record was 265 km/h or 165 mph. During the test phase, new developments were introduced, for example: microprocessors for faster monitoring and control. Components were constantly improved until all five units were technically at the same level in 1982 and were ready for regular production. During the several years of development, the purchasing policy changed, however. Instead of all-round locomotives, special locomotives were once again preferred on the basis of common development platforms with many parts in common. Therefore, only the first production run of 60 units of the class 120 were purchased. The five prototypes continue to be used for test purposes, and the regular production locomotives are still proving themselves in daily railroad operations.

Comment: The G 2000 Diesel Locomotive The class G 2000 BB diesel hydraulic locomotive is viewed at Vossloh Locomotives GmbH (formerly MaK) in Kiel as the most powerful unit of its kind. It was presented in its original version for the first time in September of 2000 at the Innotrans Exhibition in Berlin, Germany. The first thing to strike the observer was the narrow superstructure with side catwalks and the asymmetrical cabs at the ends. Both ends seen in the direction of travel showed the cab at the front of the locomotive stretching to the left across the complete width of the locomotive. To the right the cab ended even with the narrow superstructure. Next to, it at both ends was a switching step that was marvelously suited for operations with radio remote control. With it, switching work occurring at the end of a run could be done with no problem and without a second locomotive. Special features of the G 2000 BB are a fully developed building block design principle, the selection of high quality components, as well as a high level of reliability and availability. In addition to the original version, the G 2000 BB was also built between 2003 and 2010 with a cab across the entire width of the locomotive. This enabled a considerably more spacious cab with two seats and equally good sight down the track. The first units as the G 2000-2 BB went to different private transportation firms in Italy, the G 2000-3 BB variant to France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. Even the Belgian State Railroad (SNCB) has several units on its roster as leased locomotives. At its introduction to the market, the G 2000 set new standards for diesel road engines regarding design, functionality, and life cycle costs (LCC).

The 22925 legendary Gotthard steam locomotive is being produced in a one-time series in 2016 for the dedication of the new Gotthard base tunnel.

Comment: After the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) took over the Gotthard Line in 1909, it quickly became apparent that locomotives had to be acquired with greater performance in order to make operations on the steep grades on the Gotthard and the approach lines on flat territory more efficient. In addition to serving as motive power for freight locomotives, these locomotives also had to be capable of pulling express trains on the steep grades, which required a maximum speed of 65 km/h / 41 mph in addition to high pulling power. The two prototypes, road numbers 2901 and 2902, of the class C 5/6 were available for testing as early as 1913. They were equipped with four-cylinder running gear and simple expansion, which did not turn out particularly well. On the regular production locomotives, recourse was therefore made to the good experience with the running gear for the C 4/5 locomotives in the series 2701-32 and four-cylinder compound running gear based on Von-Borries was installed. In this instance, the two inboard high-pressure cylinders drove the second driving wheel set, and the outboard low-pressure cylinders drove the third driving wheel set. The rear coupled wheel set had 25 mm / 1 inch side play and the treads on the center wheel set were made narrower to ensure good running on curves. Between 1913 and 1917, 28 regular production units were placed into service with the road numbers 2951-2978, whereby road number 2978 was also the last standard gauge steam locomotive delivered to the SBB. However as early as 1921, these units (immediately designated as "Elephants") became superfluous with the complete electrification of the Gotthard Line, and they were transferred to flat territory as well as to large switchyards. There they survived even with partially forced use on the DRG and after the end of the war on the SNCF well into the Fifties, when the first units were placed in storage. At least the steam era on the SBB ended befitting the status of these locomotives because the last C 5/6 built, road number 2978, took the last official SBB steam train on November 30, 1968 to Winterthur. Just four "Elephants" remain preserved: The Swiss Transportation Museum in Lucerne houses road number C 5/6 2965. It was displayed until 1982 as a memorial in Erstfeld. Road number 2969 is being overhauled by Eurovapor (locomotive maintenance facility in Sulgen), whereby road number 2958 is functioning as a source of spare parts. Road number 2978 of SBB Historic is still operational and is stored at Del‚mont.

Comment: The EuroCity (EC) 10/11 "Mimara" between Munich and Salzburg celebrated its premiere on June 2, 1991 with the start of the summer and the annual schedule. It ran for the first time on the route Munich - Zagreb. The Yugoslavian painter, restorer, and art collector Ante Topii'c Mimara (1898-1987) served as its namesake. Five financially independent firms were responsible for the Yugoslavian rail system even before the dissolution of Yugoslavia. They were headquartered in Zagreb, Sarajewo, Beograd, Skopje, and Ljubljana. The "Association of the Yugoslavian Railways" in Belgrade served only as an umbrella organization, which is why the Zagreb Railroad Administration for the Yugoslavian State Railways (Jugoslovenske Äeleznice - JÄ) purchased new, extremely comfortable cars just for this train. These cars are still used today in the best train connections out of Zagreb: These are 26.4 meter / 86 foot 7 inch long air-conditioned open seating cars for 1st and 2nd class. With a paint scheme in powder blue / light gray the color scheme was created just for these cars. The Croatian State Railways (HÄ - Hrvatske željeznice) and the Slovenian State Railways (SÄ - Slovenske železnice) that came into being with the dissolution of Yugoslavia initially kept the paint scheme variation as well as the cars for the EC "Mimara". With the start of the summer schedule for 1993, the EC 10/11 "Mimara" was extended to Leipzig and promoted to one of the "star trains" on the so-called Frankenwald rail line. This was surely if nothing else thanks to its exotic cars and motive power in the form of a class 103 electric locomotive. Starting in 1996 the routing for the "Mimara" was even extended to Berlin. With the introduction of the ICE line Hamburg - Berlin - Munich the routing of the train from Berlin to Munich was discontinued starting in 2000 and the "Mimara" terminated again in Munich. Unfortunately, the DB did away with almost all train names with the change of schedules in 2006 and there was no longer an EC "Mimara" in Germany anymore.

Comment: The Three-Phase Current Pioneer. The class 120 marked the technological change to three-phase current propulsion. This principle promised compact motors without commutators and largely free of parts that would wear out, commutator rings, brushes, and mechanical contacts. The performance specifications for this new development were broadly formulated as a wish list, because a wide torque range and rpm range can be mastered with three-phase current technology. The class 120 was designed to pull InterCity trains at speeds of 200 km/h / 125 mph and 5,400 metric ton freight trains, and be equipped with push/pull controls and electric regenerative brakes. In 1977, the DB ordered five experimental units, which were thoroughly tested on test stands, on test runs, and in operational use. Startup, tractive effort, acceleration, running characteristics, braking power, power consumption, and stability were part of the program. Comparison tests with other makes of locomotives as well as startup tests on the Lötschberg and Semmering grades confirmed the effectiveness of the technology. The speed record was 265 km/h / 165 mph. During the test phase, new developments were introduced, for example: microprocessors for faster monitoring and control. Components were constantly improved until all five units were technically at the same level in 1982 and were ready for regular production. During the several years of development, the purchasing policy changed, however. Instead of all-round locomotives, special locomotives were once again preferred on the basis of common development platforms with many parts in common. Therefore, only the first production run of 60 units were purchased of the class 120. The five prototypes continue to be used for test purposes, and the regular production units are still proving themselves in daily railroad operations.

Cars to go with this locomotive can be found under item numbers 31161, 31162, and 31163.

Comment: T66320 - Weihenstephan Brewery T66321 - Weihenstephan Brew House Beer lovers have appreciated it for a long time, the full-bodied beers of the Bavarian State Brewery Weihenstephan. It has a long tradition. The founding of a Benedictine cloister in 725 by the holy Korbinian with his twelve followers on the Nährberg near Freising was at the beginning of the art of brewing in Weihenstephan. Since brewing was done in most of the cloisters in the Middle Ages, it is a safe assumption that brewing was done in the Weihenstephan cloister also. Anyway, there were people with hops gardens in the area with tithing obligations owed to the cloister. According to the legend, the monks of Weihenstephan certainly brewed their beer until 1040 but were in competition with the inhabitants of Freising. In this year, Abbot Arnold is supposed to have succeeded in dispossessing the inhabitants of Freising of the right to brew and to serve beer. This is when the cloister brewery of Weihenstephan is supposed to have originated. Indeed today, it is known that all of this really belongs to the realm of fables, but there is the indisputable fact that beer brewing has been going on for centuries at Weihenstephan. Yet over the course of centuries, the cloister was visited constantly by the vicissitudes of fate. In 955, the Huns plundered and destroyed the cloister. In 1336, Kaiser Ludwig the Bavarian rampaged in the same manner, as did the Swedes and the French in the Thirty Years War as well as the Austrians and the Spanish in the War of the Spanish Succession. Furthermore, between 1085 and 1463 the Weihenstephan Cloister was the victim of a conflagration four times. In addition, three plague epidemics raged, there were different periods of famine, and a large earthquake occurred in 1348, which brought additional destruction or decreases in population. Yet Bavarian persistence kept helping the Benedictines rebuild the cloister and the brewery and even to refine their art of brewing in the process. However, secularization on March 24, 1803 brought the death knell for the cloister. All ownership and rights for the cloister were transferred to the Bavarian State. The brewery remained intact and it was now managed by the Royal Crown Lands office in Schleissheim. The Agricultural Central School in Schleissheim moved in 1852 to Weihenstephan and with it came Bavarian brewery students. An academy was formed out of the school in 1895. In 1919, came the Technical School for Agriculture and Brewing and around 1930 it was a component part of the Technical University of Munich. The center of German, even worldwide brewing technology, thus came into being in Weihenstephan. After World War II, the quickly increasing beer production was overwhelming the time-honored brewery with its old buildings. Extensive renovation of the brewery building, the fermentation tanks, and the cellar buildings was carried out. Today marvelous beer products are guaranteed with the latest technology.
