About this Product
Enjoy a relaxing drink whilst taking in stunning Swiss scenery with the fahrBAR (‘driving bar’) coach for Train Simulator!
Originally built in 1913 as a post wagon, it saw over 60 years service before being taken out of service in 1978. But in an inspired move, it was repurposed into the “Calenda-Wagon” in 1981, serving drinks on ice-hockey trains on the Chur – Arosa and Landquart – Davos routes. It was ultimately rescued from scrapping by the Projekt fahrBAR team (https://projekt-fahrbar.ch/) in 2019, with the designation WR-S 3823, and with the enthusiastic support of RhB, they are restoring it to it’s former glory from a workshop at Landquart.
Proceeds from the sale of this Train Simulator pack will go towards funding the restoration. You will be given the choice of three prices on checking out if you wish to donate more to the restoration cause, but you will receive exactly the same pack regardless what you choose to pay.
