Model: HO gauge DC. Car set with four express train cars for the Trans-Europ-Express "Saphir" of the German Federal Railroad. The set consists of two 1st class compartment cars, type Avümz 111, a 1st class open-plan car, type Apümz 121 and a dining car, type WRümh 132. Open-plan car with two cloakroom windows and two sign boxes on each side of the car. Compartment cars with two sign boxes on each side of the car, one car with a radio antenna for train postal radio. The only “pop dining car” WRümh 132 of the DB, for the first time with the correct window arrangement and lettering. Authentic replica of the last trip of the Pop-WRümh in the TEE 20 Saphir on January 10, 1974 between Nuremberg and Brussels. Finely detailed bogies.

Prototype: When the DB introduced a new color scheme for its cars in 1970 with the "pop colors", a single new dining car of the type WRümh 132 was also repainted in pebble gray/purple red. It was initially used in the blue F trains, later in various TEE and IC trains such as the TEE "Sapphire" to Brussels. However, January 10, 1974 became a fateful day for this attractively colored loner when it was irreparably damaged in a shunting accident in Brussels.

Founded in 1960 as a manufacturer of plastic products (sand buckets, miniature military vehicles), the company is now one of the world's leading providers of model railways as an innovation leader. The first locomotives were produced in 1976. The models were characterized by precision and authenticity right from the start and established the company's reputation for quality early on. In addition, Roco has always thought further about model railways and stimulated the industry with innovations. Over the decades, the wagons that are not shortened in length, the more prototypical tracks with less high rail profiles or the "snag-free" close couplings should be mentioned. A milestone for the future is the cutting-edge Z21 control system, which for the first time combines the virtual and real game worlds and thus raises the play value of model railways to a completely new level. Company headquarters are in Bergheim/Salzburg. Roco has a global presence and, via Modelleisenbahn München GmbH, is a company of Modelleisenbahn Holding GmbH, which also includes the German quality manufacturer Fleischmann. Roco relies on valuable and manual work. This is the only way to create the detailed, highly reliable and functional miniatures. Comprehensive quality management with internal and external quality assurance measures ensures that Roco locomotive and wagon owners receive the best quality and can enjoy their models for a long time. Here, too, Roco is a pioneer. The Roco factory in Arad was the first factory in the model railway industry to be certified according to ISO 9001 by the German DQS GmbH.
