Artur Braun takes over Europa Technische Spielwaren's exclusive rights to sell. Together with the construction engineer Gunther Eheim they design the first big sellers. The Europa electric train H0 ensures that the number of customers coming to the small new company increases drastically. The overall favourite is the trolley bus with its complete electrical overhead wire system, which is produced up to the end of the year 2000.

Anker building block sets, pieces of countryside, trees, traffic signs, tracks, dolls, teddy bears, a merry-go-round. After five years, the product range is extensive. In fact, it is so extensive, that Artur Braun exhibits his goods at the toy trade fair in Nuremberg for the first time.

The first cable car produced by Artur Braun for the H0 series was the Model of the Nebelhornbahn in Oberstdorf. In the future this turns into a speciality of the company. The feel for what the market requires and the wishes of the model builders continue to result in new product ideas which are sensational. Examples of this are a ski lift, a material cable car and a model of the cable car going up the Schauinsland in the Black Forest.

Artur Braun in Waiblingen changes its name to BRAWA: A new company is created. The patented brand name protects the products from southern Germany all over the world. The new name stands for "Models with love for the detail" - today's motto was a matter of fact then.

The company Braunkabel is founded. The main product being produced: cables of all types and diameters - also and especially for model building.

BRAWA sets new standards. The light Baden-Baden shows the degree of technical perfection and detailed design possible in H0.

A small, busy shunting locomotive has developed into BRAWA's big seller. Twenty years ago, the model of the KöfII was presented as a novelty. Now, these special editions have turned into much sought after collector's pieces. They fulfil the increasing requirement for true to the original detail and fine workmanship.

Up until now, it is the largest German electrical locomotive: the E 95 02. Between 1927-28 AEG supplied a total of six locomotives of the series E 95. In 1979, the last locomotive was saved from being sent to the scrap yard, this was the E 95 02. Since 1966, the BSW group of the Bw Halle has been spending its time restoring the E 95 02 at the Dresden Traffic Museum . An ambitious project which requires a lot of time, enthusiasm and generous support. BRAWA supports the restoration of the E 95 02 by contributing 10 DM for every model of the E 95 01 sold.

BRAWA's 50th anniversary is the occasion for closing the last gap in their range. Based on the original plans, the first model of a steam locomotive is designed and constructed. The T3 for H0 tracks is announced at the toy trade fair in Nuremberg.

The steam engine with tender engine BR 06 001 is generally regarded as being a "giant engine". To the joy of many enthusiasts, BRAWA included this model in the product range in 2001. Coupled with the five axle tender T38St, the BR 06 had a LüP of 26 520 mm and hence was the largest express engine.

The series of superlatives continues: as a novelty Brawa announces the to this day biggest German Diesel Locomotive. The V 320 001 is a unique that was built by Henschel in 1962. The enormous locomotive was chartered by the DB.

The legendary Steam Locomotive S 2/6 is the top model for 2004. The record-breaking locomotive „Rekordlok“ from 1906, the Nuremberg museum locomotive from 1925 and the Imperial Railway model 15 001 differ not just in their paintwork and colouration, but also in the exact same details that differentiated the originals. We have utilised all our knowledge and skills to make these models real Brawa highlights.
