DEUTSCHE BUNDESBAHN Rail Carriage Destination Signs - Vintage Railway Collectibles

DEUTSCHE BUNDESBAHN Rail Carriage Destination Signs - Vintage Railway Collectibles

These Deutsche Bundesbahn destination signs are authentic double-sided carriage boards used on Germany’s national railway from the 1960s into the early 1990s. Each one identifies where a train was going, preserving a specific working fragment of European rail travel.

The signs are screen printed on plastic and measure 8.25 inches by 11.75 inches. Examples may represent InterRegio, IC InterCity, EC EuroCity, or other service and destination combinations.

Selection is random. A particular route, city, service class, color arrangement, or side cannot be guaranteed, which is part of buying original railway equipment rather than a made-to-order reproduction.
