Coffret of 2 Corail Alsace cars, 2x B11tu 2nd class, Carmillon SNCF logo
Model 2-rail DC from Piko reference 97144

Real model: Born in the mid-1970s from the design of Roger Tallon, the Corail cars revolutionized French rail comfort with their central aisle layout. Over the decades, part of the fleet has been transferred to regional TER services, adopting the colors of the Regional Councils. The Alsace region was one of the first to dress its Corail trains in a distinct regional livery. In the early 2010s, following the new SNCF logo known as "Carmillon," a contraction of carmine and vermilion, a new visual identity was deployed across all SNCF rolling stock.
