Horrem Station

New standards for the station building on your model railway installation! Faithful reproduction of the original »Green Station« built in Kerpen-Horrem in North Rhine-Westphalia on the regional express line connecting Cologne and Aachen. That lighthouse project of DB Station&Service AG is the first station to be built to combine holistically the three aspects environment, energy and climate. While the clear structure and the reserved tone of the slate building leave the trains the privilege of being the real stars, the large-area glazed facade and roof provide transparency and ideal daylight penetration for the travellers present in the central hall without any supporting pillar and its waiting area. The photo-voltaic installation making use of solar energy as well as the grassing of the roof surfaces of varying overhanging length round off that successful ecological model. Seats, modern lampposts and train destination indicators also form part of the kit.
