This very nice 3-Rail AC HO gauge double train pack by Roco is 04070A a DB Class VT 11.5 TEE 7 car set in red and cream Trans Europ Express livery. The three car add on Roco 04183A set is also included taking this out to a very impressive seven cars, this is a beautiful, and quite rare, model train. 


The trainsets of Class VT 11.5 (often simply called TEE) were diesel multiple units built by Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) in 1957 and used for Trans Europ Express (TEE) services. Perceived as flagships of the DB rolling stock, they carried first-class seating only. When the UIC numbering scheme became effective on 1 January 1968, the power heads of the trainsets were renamed to Class 601 whilst the middle cars became Class 901 according to the DB locomotive classification. They were used for TEE service from 1957 until 1972 and thereafter on German InterCity services.


One trainset has been preserved in operating condition by DB, consisting of power cars VT 11.5 5014/19 and eight unpowered cars, and it operates occasionally on special excursions, including for private hire so this train pack could be used on a modern layout as well as a period one. The only other car preserved from this series is VT 11.5 5012 (as 602 003, its later number), preserved at the Nuremberg Transport Museum.


The train is in good condition as you can see in the pictures, we are unable to test it as we do not have a three rail AC test rig or track, so we have not tested it but can see no reason why it would not run. It is sold in untested condition, this means that it may not run, and as such it is not being sold in running condition. However a complete external visual inspection has shown no reason why this loco would not run and the overall condition is very good. The boxes are  in good if slightly shelf worn condition. 


Overall this is a really nice scale train pack and would look fantastic on a layout.


Do please have a look at my other listings, I typically have various HO and OO locos on offer as well as an extensive range of imported N gauge locos and other items. 


Note: I do recommend all locos are cleaned & serviced, as they have some age to them even if the quality looks at the highest level (fairly standard advice for all locos!).
