The
full-size trolleys
from
CityNightLine
can also be auctioned by enthusiasts.
These are offered in the Bahnshop at a fixed price of 599 euros or 39,933 BahnBonus points.
In the product description, the trolley is advertised particularly verbatim.
On the website of the train shop it says: “The era of sleeper and couchette car transports by
Deutsche Bahn AG
is a thing of the past.
However, the trolleys of the CityNightLine sleeping cars, which have been on the road from Scandinavia to Italy and can tell many stories from their travels across Europe, will live on. "
The trolleys can also be auctioned.
If 599 euros are too high for you, you can try your luck at auction and maybe save money.
Incidentally, scratches and dents on the trolleys are part of the flair, as
DB
emphasizes.

railway fans

Because some
lure signs
are also part of the offer.

such an offer as a
Deutsche Bahn
fan
?
Thats is quite easy.
The DB website says “Send us your request by email”.
Because the
auction
is a so-called offline sale.

The
catch
: It is not clear how high the offers from competitors are.
So lovers can only hope that someone else won't outbid them with their offer.
As it says on the website, the offers are valid until December 31, 2021 6:00 p.m.
