Fleischmann 6260101 N Compartment wagon 3. Class, DRG Compartment coach 3. Class

4-axle compartment coach 3. Class, type C4 pr04, of the German State Railroad Company.
A total of over 21,000 compartment cars of various types were manufactured. The many side doors made it possible to quickly change the passenger. The compartments were closed at the beginning against each other; from compartment to compartment, it was via the outside doors. The footboards, which stretched across the entire length of the car, were intended for the shepherds, who were "gymnastics" during the journey from compartment to compartment. As a rule, the Prussian compartment cars ran in complete fittings. The Deutsche Bundesbahn recorded 11,903 compartment cars of this type in 1952 – and this, despite the fact that the II. World War II had struck large gaps in the stocks.
