The articulated platforms of the Lails type of TRANSFESA

These three-axis articulated platforms, with fixed end faces and sliding tarpaulins, formed the Transfesa “Lails” series, which initially had 48 units acquired in 1976, to which 20 new platforms were added in 1980, all of them suitable for changing axes on the border, which allowed international traffic throughout Europe. They were used to transport different large loads, such as Renault vehicle bodies sent to France from Spain.

The model reproduced by Electrotren uses the base of the “Laeks” platforms, as happened in reality with the Transfesa design, to which new end faces and the injected plastic canvas are added. Years ago, Electrotren produced this same model with a canvas made of fabric.

The current model has a short coupling mechanism to make the compositions more real as the wagons remain top to bottom.
