Product Description The refurbishment of the coaches involved the installation of Minden-Deutz bogies instead of the previous Pennsylvania bogies, which had been adapted to the Cuban track profile. Additionally, the striking Regionales corporate livery, featuring orange stripes on a white background, was applied. Given the additional cost of changing the American couplers to conventional ones, an ingenious solution was devised: two service coaches, known as "Mansos," equipped with mixed couplers, allowing for a towable and stable consist.These service coaches were manufactured using surplus 5000 series coaches, equipping them solely with Minden bogies and updating their external decoration. Despite their good performance in terms of rolling stock, their outdated interior fittings excluded them from passenger service, leading to their adaptation for other purposes.Electrotren recently produced the first of these coaches in its version with gangway bellows, under the reference E5096. We now offer the opportunity to complete your consists by incorporating the remaining "Manso" coach, with registration S-1033, equipped with intercommunication bellows. An attractive option for representing this unique coupling feature in scale is the use of Hornby™s R7398 magnetic couplers, which faithfully replicate the American model.
