Trheingold low floor brief distance travel coach

Trheingold will manufacture the coaches belonging to the 2nd series, type 73, the most common. These coaches have been subjected during their life span to a few esthetical modifications among which the most important, carried out starting from the end of 80s, a design change of the doors, from inline with the body shell to a more internal position in order to be within maximum allowable width of the train with the doors in open position.

Trheingold will manufacture both versions (doors in line and internal)

The painting scheme of these coaches has been the object thru ought the years of numerous logos and liveries used by FS; from the dark slate grey on the sides with silver roof, in the 80s the colour passed to the chromatic boom of the “Navetta” livery with beige grey base and orange and violet streaks and carbon grey roof to date with the XMPR livery.

Trheingold will manufacture the coaches with all the different liveries (slate grey, Navetta and XMPR)
