This model train is a product of the brand LS Models whose rérence is LS472009. This model faithfully reproduces a UIC-X Dms type carriage from the Swiss Federal Railways. This nomenclature identifies the SBB's luggage vans. This rolling stock, which accompanies the passenger carriages, is used to transport passengers' luggage to the destination station. This miniature carriage from LS Models perfectly reproduces the general lines of this van, which served the Swiss network in this guise in the 1970s. The green walls, flanked by the old SBB logo, and the silver roof, which is slightly bevelled, are all reminiscent of that exciting period in the history of the railways, when the last steam locomotives disappeared.
UIC-X passenger carriages are an international vehicle standard established by the International Union of Railways in the 1960s. Rolling stock complying with this standard can be found in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In the 1970s, the latter bought several series of vehicles of this type to renew its fleet. These include cars known as Am, Bm, ABm, WRm and Dms. The name refers to the 20 baggage vans acquired by the country in 1977.
