Fleischmann (model railroads)

Fleischmann is a German manufacturer of model railway products. Fleischmann was founded in Nuremberg in 1887 by Jean Fleischmann, as a toy company. Their first model train, in O scale, was produced in 1938. Their first H0 scale products were introduced in 1952 and their N scale "Piccolo" product line in 1969.

Nowadays, Fleischmann is a well-established brand name in the German model railway industry, rivalling Märklin in market share. Since they focus almost exclusively on central European prototypes, Fleischmann is relatively unknown outside that area. Most Fleischmann H0 products are made for the two-rail direct current system, but they make three-rail, Märklin-compatible versions of some locomotives, as well as replacement non-insulated wheelsets for use with their wagons on three-rail systems.

Fleischmann (band)

Fleischmann was a band from Germany, founded about 1990, that released several albums, their most popular one being "Hunger", which made its debut in 1995.

A single was released from the album titled "Ohne Traurigkeit". They received help on the "Hunger" album from Farin Urlaub (from Die Ärzte), who assisted in the backing vocals and chorus.

Fleischmann pioneered a style called " Neue Deutsche Härte", being ancestors of successful bands like Rammstein. Their style is a kind of a "missing link" between Metal and NDH.
