Set - 3 Crane Tender Cars for the Crane Car Traiin

Cable/equipment car, work car, crew quarters car for the German Federal Railroad (DB) 150 metric ton crane.

All of the cars come with current-conducting couplers and lighting. The repair car has a digital decoder and a sound effects generator with many functions. The lighting in the crew quarters car will work in conventional operation and can be controlled digitally. There is lighting in the equipment and cable cars (F3). Different sound effects of work being done (F2) can be controlled digitally with a Control Unit or with Märklin Systems. A random sequence of operating sounds can be selected (this includes random sounds of work being done with welding (without a blinking light)). In addition, you can also call up different sounds of work being done (F4), with a Control Unit or with Märklin Systems. These sounds come in this sequence: vibrator / tamper, two-stroke motor, compressor with a compressed air driver, welding with light control (flickering), grinding wheel, hammering, compressed air screwdriver, metal being formed, and a metal saw. After the sounds of the metal saw, the sequence of sounds starts up from the beginning.

A complete train of crane tender cars stands ready for the German Federal Railroads (DB, now the DB AG) large crane cars such as the Goliath. The crane group, an experienced team of specialists, is permanently assigned to the the train and is constantly in readiness - or in use. Work cars with different tools and machines as well as equipment cars for cables and other salvage material are present in this train in addition to the flat cars necessary for the transport of the crane that carry the boom and the counterweights. Additional cars serve as living quarters for the crew. The enclosed cars for the heavy crane groups are chiefly converted from former mail cars. The windows, doors and interiors are altered to suit the cars new assignment. Crew cars and work cars are equipped with a diaphragm connection at one end and usually remained coupled together. The crane with its boom support car travels between this pair and the cable car during transport. The crane tender cars were initially painted in ocean blue and formed a striking contrast to the yellow crane cars in Era IV. At present the crane, boom support car and tender cars are being repainted a uniform gleaming red during overhauls.
