Prototype: The KISS (Comfortable, Innovative, High-Speed ??S-Bahn Train) is an electric double-decker multiple unit from the Swiss manufacturer Stadler Rail for standard and broad gauge. It was developed from 2008 to 2010 under the name Stadler Dosto (double-decker) and since 2011 has been sold in several series to a wide variety of railway companies in 48 countries - it runs there under a wide variety of names. Although the vehicle is intended as a two- to eight-part train unit, it has so far only been built as a three-, four-, six- and seven-part version. There is the KISS 160 (160 km/h) for regional transport and the KISS 200 (200 km/h) for long-distance transport.
The drive of the KISS comes from the GTW and FLIRT, with the power increased to 750 kW. The motor bogies were also taken from the Flirt. The aim of the development was to create a multiple unit with a higher power than a locomotive. By using uniform components for the individual product families, individual customer wishes can be taken into account.
The vehicle can be optimized for different platform heights. By laying the high-voltage line through all the carriages, a train unit can run with only one pantograph attached, and the pantographs can be located on both the two powered end carriages and the intermediate carriages.
The Austrian WESTbahn put seven Stadler KISS of a 6-part long-distance variant into operation in 2011, with a maximum speed of 200 km/h. Since the anchors of the doors had come loose several times when trains met, the maximum speed was initially reduced to 160 km/h until the doors were reworked and adapted to the higher speed. The four middle carriages are each equipped with a café area above one bogie, there are two toilets each above the other bogie, while carriage 400 has a large universal toilet for people with reduced mobility. The end carriages have seating areas with large tables.

The British company Bachmann Europe Plc was founded in 1989 and acquired the brand name Liliput and the molds of the former Austrian company Liliput in 1993. A branch was opened in Altdorf near Nuremberg to serve the German and continental European market from here. All new product planning and product development for the Liliput brand is managed from Altdorf.
The focus at Bachmann/Liliput is on the two gauges H0 and H0e, the models are based on German and European models. While the molds of the former Austrian company were still used in the first few years, in the early 2000s they began to produce their own molds and models. The first steam locomotives were the class 62 locomotives with a metal body. In the years that followed, many models were to follow that contributed significantly to the current success of this brand, such as the H0 series 05, 45, 56, 71, 84 or 92 steam locomotives, the VT90, ET11 or FLIRT railcars, the E10 electric locomotives or E44 and last but not least legendary passenger cars such as the Karwendel Express, the compartment cars or the Altenberger cars.
The high quality of the products is also confirmed by awards from the trade press, for example the E44 electric locomotive was voted Model of the Year 2010 by the readers of Eisenbahnmagazin and it also received 1st place. 1st place as entry-level model at the Golden Track 2011 award ceremony, voted for by the readers of the magazines Modelleisenbahner, Eisenbahnjournal, Miba and Züge. Liliput most recently received the Golden Track 2015 for the most popular foreign locomotive for the Dosto SBB-ZVV electric double-decker multiple-unit train in H0.
