Important information about the operation of this car: This car can be used on curved track with a minimum radius of 360 mm / 14-3/16", but we recommend larger curves. Signals, catenary, bridge railings, tunnel portals, etc. must be located at a sufficient distance from track curves due to the overhang of the large Schabel support girders. The track must be laid very well due to this car's high weight. 305268 Set of special AC wheel sets (32 pieces)
