News 2024.12 - KSW Woltersdorf/Berlin

A piece of contemporary history and not a bit tired!

The Woltersdorf tram is a standard-gauge interurban tram. It runs on the eastern outskirts of Berlin and connects the Berlin-Rahnsdorf railway station with the municipality of Woltersdorf in Brandenburg. Due to the scenic route, the tram also plays an important role in Berlin's excursion traffic. However, it mainly serves as a feeder line from Woltersdorf to the Berlin-Rahnsdorf S-Bahn station.

KSW-W07-M

Towards the end of the war, some of the carriages were damaged in air raids and could no longer be used. In order to maintain operations, the Woltersdorf tramway received the prototype of the Kriegsstraßenbahnwagen (KSW). The KSW with the number 7 arrived in Woltersdorf in mid-1944. At the end of the 1960s, three KSW sidecars each arrived from Magdeburg and Strausberg, including the sidecar that was later given the number 22 and is still operational today.

We offer the TW 7 and its sidecar 22 as a museum set in a classic set with closed doors. The subway car 7 can also be purchased individually, for the first time from HALLING models with doors open on one side, which fortunately allows a view of the fine metal grab rails in the entrance area. The models are produced in small series and are only available in very limited quantities. Make your purchase quickly if you would like us to send you a piece of Berlin history!
