150255 Construction site train "HOCHTIEF" Herpa / Marklin

The highlight of the HOCHTIEF series: 

In cooperation with Märklin in May 2004, Herpa released the HOCHTIEF construction site train.

HOCHTIEF is Germany’s largest construction company, and one the market leaders on an international scale. Germany’s railroad company Deutsche Bahn AG contracted HOCHTIEF in 1998 to build the new ICE train connection between Nuremberg and Ingolstadt. The company already did its share the recently opened new ICE train connection between Cologne and Frankfurt, including twelve bridges and fourteen tunnels.

The construction site train made by Märklin and Herpa is inspired just those works for Germany’s national railway company. Herpa offers a special highlight for all HOCHTIEF collectors.
