The set includes a Deutsche Bundesbahn Bts 50 double container wagon. It is offered by Roco under reference 76468.
The Bts 50 double container wagons are used by the Deutsche Bundesbahn (the German railway company of the FRG) to transport containers. These wagons are designed to carry two containers stacked one on top of the other, thus optimising the use of loading space. The Bts 50 type is specifically designed for standard 20-foot ISO containers. The wagons are fitted with locking and securing devices to hold the containers in place during rail transport. These container wagons comply with international standards and can be used for cross-border freight transport. The design of the Bts 50 wagons makes it easy to load and unload the containers, using special equipment such as cranes or lift trucks. The containers are generally secured to the wagons using lashing devices to ensure their stability and safety throughout the journey.
