Description
Hapag-Lloyd Passenger Car Set. 4 different German State Railroad Company (DRG) express train passenger cars. 1 type A4ü Hechtwagen / Pike Cars compartment car, 1st class, 2 type B4ü Hechtwagen / Pike Cars compartment car, 2nd class, and 1 type Pw4ü Hechtwagen / Pike Cars baggage car. The baggage cars look as they did at the end of the Twenties. Source: www.maerklin.de Hapag-Lloyd Trains – Long-Distance Travel and Emigration. After World War I maritime ship service and the overseas trips associated with it almost succumbed to the high inflation and the draconian reparations obligations. The great steam ships of the prewar period were handed over to the victors and the German shipping lines began pretty much at the Zero Hour. The overseas ship cruise gradually became good business again due to the large number of people in Germany ready to emigrate. Among the companies for whom this became good business again was Hapag-Lloyd, which brought countless Germans to the New World from Bremerhaven and also from Cuxhaven; their baggage often consisted of nothing more than a little bit of hope for a better life. The German State Railroad Company (DRG) reacted quickly to the stream of one-way travelers and placed special trains in operation that ran from Bremen to Bremerhaven and from Hamburg to Cuxhaven. The upswing in the economy revived travel and more and more people could once again afford a trip abroad. The German State Railroad Company (DRG) purchased on their own pure 1st and 2nd class Hechtwagen / Pike Cars in order to make the trip to the deluxe cabins on ships such as the legendary Bremen as pleasant as possible. These cars were arranged in trains with émigrés, who crowded into the 3rd class cars. Motive power was often a class 17, the former Royal Prussian State Railways (K.P.E.V.) class S 10. They were by design the motive power for the Imperial Court Train of Wilhelm II and were being increasingly replaced by more powerful standard design locomotive such as the class 01. The Hapag-Lloyd special trains were the beginning of a challenge for all travelers, the start of the unknown, for some because of a lark and a love of adventure, for the others due to the bitter necessity to begin a new life in the hope of finding good fortune in the new world.
