1959 Renault panoramic Autorail Type 5150
Exceptional 1/20th scale exhibition model - Régie Nationale des Usines Renault (RNUR) - Ateliers R. Chatet
Sans réserve - No reserve

Composite material, metal, wood, and fabric, in red and white, with the SNCF logo. Two two-axle bogies resting on rails, fixed to a finely detailed base imitating the ground, featuring two second-class compartments at each end with rows of seats, a two-level central section with the engine/transmission and luggage compartment on the lower level and a first-class compartment with rows of seats offering a panoramic view on the upper level.

Ten units were manufactured in Choisy-le-Roi and numbered X4201 to X4210. The autorail was operated from 1959 on the lines of the Alps, the Massif Central, and the French Riviera, and was withdrawn from service around 1985. Mounted on a base, sold with a glass display case (incomplete) and a wooden transport crate.

This is an exceptional piece, a moving testimony to the brand's epic railway history.
