Description

A carriage for long journeys

The sleeper stands for the night train, and that is the mood this set captures. It is a carriage to couple on, not a whole train, which is exactly why it suits railway fans who already own a locomotive. At 228 pieces the carriage can be built in an evening. If you couple several together you get a long train that makes a real impression on a larger layout, especially once it is running on a full loop of track.

Black, yellow, light grey and red

Black forms the chassis, while yellow, light grey and red shape the carriage body. That fits the colourful style of early-eighties trains, in which wagons were easy to recognise and clearly coloured. The 41 different parts are a compact set, concentrated on the pieces needed for a carriage: running gear, walls, windows and roof. Since many of them appear in several trains, you can reuse them well for carriages of your own. The pairing of dark underframe and bright body keeps the carriage easy to pick out on the line.

The 12V range

The 12V railway took its power through the rails, unlike the earlier battery version. That was an important step towards longer running times and larger layouts. The passenger carriage runs on these tracks and combines with matching locomotives and wagons from the range. For collectors it is therefore a practical addition that extends the train without any need to modify parts.

Two figures and a parts check

Two minifigures travel or work on the train. That is enough for small scenes in the compartment or on the platform. The parts list on this page gives all 228 pieces so you can check a used copy for completeness. With “What can I build?” you can also find models you can put together from your stock if you throw the parts from several railway sets together. That is especially useful if you assemble trains to your own taste and still have room in the rolling stock.
