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!

New – now also available with carriage number 5002!
50 meters long, the new generation of BVG trams clearly outshines all previous vehicles. The new trams – called Urbanliners – are largely produced by Alstom in Bautzen, Saxony. The exemplary models, which are around 57 cm (!) long, are manufactured by the Viennese model railway company HALLING Modelle on the outskirts of Vienna and steal the show from many of the models produced to date!

Improved new edition of a legend!
When it became apparent in the 1970s that freight and passenger transport on the StLB would have to be separated in order to reduce journey times, the management of the state railways decided to develop a railcar with diesel-electric power transmission. The contract for its manufacture was awarded to the Vienna-based company Knotz, which at that time was known for producing custom designs in rail vehicle construction, even in small quantities. The first railcar was delivered to the Murtalbahn in the fall of 1980. Many more examples of this vehicle family were to follow until 1999, going to the StLB, the Zillertalbahn, and the ÖBB.

The first „Salzburger Lokalbahn“!
In July 1907, the ‘Rote Elektrische’ (Red Electric) connection from Salzburg Local Railway Station to Drachenloch station was opened, and shortly afterwards the section of the line from the German border was electrified. As early as its first year of operation, 15 passenger cars were in service. However, the city and local railway also always transported goods, especially marble, sand and cement. In the interwar period, a buffet car was even added to increase the attractiveness of the railway.
