Details

Add realistic track maintenance and infrastructure freight operations to your N-gauge model railway with the Fleischmann 6660159 3-piece ballast wagon set. These wagons represent ballast wagons used by Deutsche Bahn (DB) for transporting and distributing track ballast along maintenance trains, a common sight on modern and period layouts. Built to N-gauge (1:160) scale, this set is ideal for recreating infrastructure and engineering works trains behind diesel or electric locomotives.

Each wagon features detailed bodywork and functional prototype-inspired design, capturing the utilitarian look of ballast stock. The set comes with NEM 355 coupler pockets and a close-coupling mechanism, providing smooth, reliable running and prototypical spacing on standard 2-rail DC track. With a combined length over buffers of approximately 216 mm, it integrates seamlessly into longer maintenance and freight consists without dominating your layout.

This 3-piece ballast wagon set is a great way to showcase track maintenance and freight operations on your N-gauge model railway with authentic modern detail and operational interest.
