Prototype: German Railroad, Inc. (DB AG) type Bvmkz 856 compartment car, 2nd class. Pressure-proof version with SIG transitions for long-distance traffic. Light gray long-distance traffic paint scheme with traffic red trim. Car run: IC 2013 from Dortmund to Oberstdorf. Car serial number 7. The car looks as it did in 2003.
Märklin H0: The majority of Märklin products are manufactured in this gauge on a scale of 1:87. Due to the high operational reliability of the Märklin H0 three-wire alternating current system, Märklin has contributed to making this gauge the most widely used in the world. All Märklin H0 locomotives have been digitally controllable as standard since 2000.
Märklin Z-gauge: Model railway enthusiasts do not only opt for Z-gauge on a scale of 1:220 when space is limited. In Europe Märklin is the only large-scale manufacturer of Z-gauge, which appeals not only to passionate layout builders but also to collectors.
