Info about the original

The Ahaus-Alstätter-Eisenbahn AAE, a private railway near the Dutch border has recently made a name for itself as a car hire company. AAE now owns more than 11 000 freight cars. One of AAE'S major areas of concentration is the hiring of cars for container traffic. In addition to the 4 and 6-axle cars, it also has 8-axle low-platform units "megafret" on stock. The "megafret" cars are 8-axle units comprising two 4-axle cars which are tightly coupled and which cannot be separated when in operation. They have a low loading surface of 825 mm above the upper rail level, so that even the new "High-cube" containers can be transported.
