The DB BR420 is a classic German train that operated on the S-Bahn networks of Munich, Frankfurt, and Stuttgart from the 1970s to the 2000s. It is a four-car train that can reach speeds of up to 120 km/h and has a distinctive design and sound.

Moreover, Train Simulator: DB BR420 EMU Add-On is a large file that may take a long time to download and install.
