Prototype History:
The proliferation of the rail system in Europe in the later part of the 19th century provided ample opportunity for various breweries to expand the reach of their product. They jumped at the chance to move their product over long distances with ease. They also were aggressive with the advertising on the sides of these railcars. These cars were typically small (less than 40 feet) and ran on two axles.

Some cars were only for use in (slow) loose-coupled ordinary goods trains. Other types common in Ep I-III had footboards and hand grips along the length of the wagon (Laufbrettern und Handgriffen), to enable them to be used in (faster) Personenzug, where the guard needed to access the whole train.
Road Name History:
Zentis is a German jam and confectionery manufacturer. It supplies finished products to customers and also to companies, especially dairy product industries, for which it is the market leader in Europe.

Fruit preparations, jams and sweet creams are produced at the production sites at the company headquarters in Aachen. Marzipan, chocolate and cereal specialties are manufactured in Eilendorf. Zentis also has manufacturing subsidiaries in Hungary, Poland, the U.S. and Russia, which produce fruit preparations for the dairy, ice cream and baked goods in particular, as well as confectionery. In 2012, Zentis acquired the company Sweet Ovations LLC and with it two more production plants in the U.S.

In 2019, as one of the largest fruit processing companies in Europe, the group employed an average of 2,137 employees and achieved a turnover of approximately 670 million euros, of which almost three quarters were fruit preparations for the dairy industry (e. g. yoghurt, quark or drinks).From Wikipedia
Brand/Importer Information:
Brawa Artur Braun Modellspielwarenfabrik GmbH & Co. was founded in 1948 by Artur Braun in Waiblingen, Germany, to distribute model trains from other toy makers; eventually they began to manufacture their own lighting accessories such as streetlights and signals. In 1963 they acquired the complete line of motorized trolleybus and ski lift models from Eheim. They also began to expand their own line to include scenery items, and by 1993 they'd added locomotives and rolling stock to their product range. This medium-sized business is today jointly managed by the second and third generations of the Braun family: Günter Braun, son of the founder, and his daughter Katrin Braun are the company's managing partners.
Brawa range covers HO, O and N scales. The N scale range is focused on European rolling-stock, German locomotives and accessories like signals, streetlights, clocks and telephone booths.

Here is how the company describes itself:
At BRAWA, continuity and sustainable thinking and action - as the particular strengths of a family business - have a double impact. Changes are carefully considered and strategic decisions taken on the basis of a long-term vision, thus enabling the company to respond quickly and deliberately to the demands of the market. In addition, cross-generation collaboration ensures a vibrant coexistence of tradition and innovation.
In short, our future course is set and all signals are pointing towards continuity and growth. Our presence at our site in Remshalden shows our commitment to this area and highlights the sustainable nature of our company's location in the region. Sustainability is, as it were, an intrinsic value of our family business.
