Train: DB BR143 S-Bahn 80’s 3-car
When the class 420 EMU was presented in the 1970’s and introduced on the new S-Bahn lines across Germany, people in the state of North Rhine Westphalia (NRW), passengers were not very happy. The ET420 was designed to run on S-Bahn lines that looked much like a metro network, while the lines in NRW were more akin to regional trains.
So, the x-class coaches were developed to run there, initially hauled by class 141 and 111 engines. When Germany reunited, DB took over a whole lot of brand new electric engines from the former GDR, – the class 143. It soon became the main power source on NRW’s S-Bahns.
This pack contains a three-car train in the orange Bundesbahn livery of the 1980’s, consisting of one engine, a second class coach (Bx), a first and second class coach (ABx) and a cab car (Bxf).
