BRAWA fans are delighted with the precise scale of our models and the abundance of fascinating details that they incorporate – for example individually mounted, filigree handrails and steps, spring buffers or pin sharp printing. Powerful motors, precise drives and a harmonious interaction of the motor and gears lend our locomotives true-to-original running pro- perties. High quality materials and careful workmanship make them genuine objects of value. Most of the locomotives and coaches are made of die-cast zinc, which also provides advantages in terms of weight and robustness. Dedication to detail determines every phase of our production. It begins with a meticulous study of the original follo- wed by production of design plans in 3D and technical implementation. Current production is accompanied by compre- hensive tests – prototypes and samples are technically inspected and visually compared with the original and the cas- ting tools continually optimised. Serial production only begins when premium quality is achieved. The process is completed by equipping the models with details by hand. PRUSSIAN BESTSELLER FOR FAST FREIG HT TRANSPORT.
