LGB 30330 Swiss BDB third class passenger coach with 3 axles. Please see my other items for a matching locomotive and baggage car. Coach is in like new condition, with the original box which is also like new. Coach comes from a smoke free home. The Railway and Locomotive Prototype: Between 1910 and 1926 the Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works, SLM, built seventeen HG3/3 rack steam locomotives for the Brunigbahn, which runs from Lucerne to Interlaken . They were retired in 1965, but loco Nr. 1067 has been restored and is used on historic passenger trains on the Ballenberg Dampfbahn, a steam operated museum railway running from Interlaken to Giswil. The rack mechanism of the HG3/3 is powered by separate cylinders and gears, which rotate in the opposite direction and faster than the mechanism driving the wheels. The separate rack mechanism is turned off when the loco is on level tracks, allowing the loco to travel at higher speeds when only powered by adhesion.
