It's a Deutsche Bahn ET 403 emu; first used for Intercity services, and later as a Lufthansa airport express. Some people think they were funny-looking, but it's one of my favorite designs; it was really cool to find a model.

Yeah, I know--for that much money, I could almost fly to CH and ride a real one! (Well, maybe not, but it would cover a big part of a railpass...)
