    Product Features and Details

    Model: The Modellbahn Union KLv 12 maintenance is an exquisitely detailed model that stands out. This model is thoughtfully designed with a smooth-running motor, a sturdy metal chassis, power pickup from both axles for reliable performance, and a factory-installed 6-pin Zimo sound decoder, adding an immersive audio experience to the model.

    Prototype: In 1954/55, the DB (Deutsche Bundesbahn) ordered new maintenance cars. Based on the VW T1 body, a total of 30 vehicles of the Klv 20 type were ordered from the companies Beilhack (our prototype) and WMD. The VW body was mounted on a new frame. The propulsion system used an air-cooled VW industrial engine with a displacement of 1.2 liters and 28 horsepower. The maximum speed was 70 km/h, and the total weight was approximately 1400 kg. Power was transmitted through a clutch and a manual gearbox sourced from the automotive industry, offering four forward gears and one reverse gear. For turning around, the original vehicles were equipped with a lifting device that allowed one person to lift and rotate the vehicle. The DB retired the Klv 20 by 1977, but they continued to be used by other railways and some are still preserved today. Due to their robust construction and simple maintenance, seven vehicles are still in existence.
