Roco 78181 Diesel Railcar class 650
For operation on less frequented lines, the Deutsche Bahn purchased a new local railcar in 1999 to replace older designs. The choice fell on the RegioShuttle 1, developed by the company ADtranz, which was designated class 650 by the DB AG. This type of vehicle has established itself mainly in southern Germany. The RS 1 is characterized above all by its innovative, trapezoidal-shaped ribbon windows. Two diesel engines with almost 250 HP each take the low-floor train to a top speed of 120 km/h. With an empty weight of 40 tons, the railcar, which offers seats for up to 101 passengers, is rather a lightweight vehicle.
