PIKO 58590 - Set of 2 additional cars BR 412 ICE 4 DB AG VI
Set of 2 additional cars for the PIKO ICE 4 of the DB AG Ep. VI. In 2011, Deutsche Bahn AG commissioned Siemens Mobility to build up to 300 new high-speed trains for use in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The new BR 412/812 multiple units, which are being developed jointly by Siemens and Bombardier, are powered by several cars, so-called power cars. The train configuration provides for various modular units from five to 14-car trains. Thanks to this concept, the train can easily be adapted to the individual requirements of the transport company in terms of the desired acceleration, speed and number of seats. The DB has so far ordered
85 twelve- and 45 seven-car trainsets as a basic configuration, which consist of non-powered end and control cars, powered seating cars and on-board bistro as well as non-powered seating, dining and service cars.
The seven-car trainset has three powered cars and offers 456 seats over a length of 200 meters. A twelve-car trainset has six powered cars and 830 seats over a length of 346 meters. The top speed is 250 km/h. The external shape was based on the existing ICE fleet and further developed. The first trains have been in regular service on the Hamburg-Würzburg, Stuttgart-Munich and Hamburg-Berlin-Munich lines since December 2017.
