Engine Refrigerated Wagon MK4 of DR

The machine refrigerated wagons had direct cooling, i.e. 2 built-in refrigeration systems and 2 underfloor diesel generator sets. In the refrigerated train formation, the DM4 generator and crew car took over the power supply, but the refrigerated wagons could also be used autonomously (i.e. individually).
This refrigerated train normally ran as a 6-car train + DM4 generator and crew car.

Due to the construction, the wagon is quite heavy, about 750 grams. A powerful locomotive is therefore recommended, especially for a complete train.

Minimum radius is R40, tested on a long track in Schkeuditz 2023. Slow speed over switches is recommended.

There are also 8 pcs of 30586 plate modified 2×8 with door rail. TLC has never made them in blue color. You can use these parts from other companies like me or replace them with 4pcs 4282 plate 2×16. However, the corrugation of the side wall is then interrupted.

Custom parts include ball bearings and 2 sticker on the door.

For decals look at the next pictures, the print sheet has enough decals for six different wagons with individual numbers. Print the picture in origin size.

DDm 915 Autotransportwagen

For everyone who doesn’t wanna miss out on taking their car along with them when taking the train, for many years there’ve been specialy designed wagons that can load up cars and other small road vehicles. This saves a lot of travel time, nerves and is also good for the environment, as you save the fuel needed for the trip.

This moc is a so called “Autotransportwagen” or car transport wagon, which is usually coupled onto long-distance EuroCity or Intercity trains here in Europe and is capable of travelling speeds of up to 160 km/h.

It should be able to carry four cars on each the upper and lower decks, but mind the clearance on the lower deck. Also please don’t turn it upside down.

Minimum radius: R104
Custom parts: Ball bearings

Credits: The Minden-Deutz MD 36 bogies were originally made by “Duq” and reworked by “raised” and “Urbanerwin”.

Any criticism and feedback is much appreciated.

“Hbbillns” modern 8-wide goods wagon

A generic modern covered two-axled goods wagon widely used all accross Europe.

For intermediate and expert builders.

Custom parts: None
Minimum radius: R104

*Disclaimer* Although the wagon has been built and has seen some action during events, the performance isn’t as good as I want to be.
The moc may have some issues going around curves and through switches, as the two-axle design does not self center itself and might derail when pushed. Also it is rather wobbly, so be extra careful when handling it.

This moc may receive a major overhaul in the future.

Feel free to recolour it to your own liking!

Many thanks to DennisakaTechno for making instructions.

“Zags” – 8-wide generic modern European tank wagon

The “Zags” tank wagon is widely used all across Europe and is usually filled with all sorts of various liquid cargos, most notably oil and chemical products.
The moc features some advanced techniques and should be build by more experienced builders.

Minimum radius is R104 in 1:45 scale.

Custom parts include: Ball bearings

Build and tested in real life but if there is something wrong with it, please contact me so I can update the file. Also feel free to recolour it to your own imagination!

Open freight wagon

This simple, subtle open freight wagon can be used in all sorts of scenarios and works for both a mixed freight train as well as a full consist of only these wagons. It can also be mixed inbetween some of the open freight wagon for sugar beets, making for a more interesting train overall.

Please be aware that the height of the buffer is 2 plates above the standard height for a more realistic appearance, therefor the magnet is higher as well. Getting the buffer piece to be lower will need a bit of modificiation but should not be difficult. The minimum radius might be smaller than R104 but that was not tested by me.

Open freight wagon for sugar beets

This simple open freight wagon was mostly used in long consists to move harvested sugar beets. The model is build approx. in 1:45 scale and uses no custom pieces.

Please be aware that the height of the buffer is 2 plates above the standard height for a more realistic appearance, therefor the magnet is higher as well. Getting the buffer piece to be lower will need a bit of modificiation but should not be difficult. The minimum radius might be smaller than R104 but that was not tested by me.
