The Brawa 40674 H0 diesel locomotive 236 118-6 is an exact replica of the class 236 of the German Federal Railroad from Era IV. It impresses with its prototypical construction, finely detailed design and state-of-the-art technical features. This model brings the historic diesel locomotive not only visually but also functionally to your model railway layout and enables an authentic railroad experience.
The V36 series (later known as the 236 series) was originally developed as the WR 360 C 14 and was an important tool for the Wehrmacht during the Second World War. With an output of 360 hp and a streamlined gearbox, the locomotive was developed to enable smoke-free operation on military railroad installations. After the war, numerous examples found their way to the German Federal Railways, where they were mainly used for shunting and suburban services.
Various modifications were typical of the post-war period, including larger cooling water expansion tanks and adjustable radiator blinds. The last class 236 remained in service with the DB until 1981 and became very popular due to its versatility and robustness. To this day, a few examples can be seen on museum railroads that commemorate this important locomotive history.
The Brawa diesel locomotive 236 118-6 was manufactured with the highest precision and includes numerous prototypical details that make it a real collector's item. The etched radiator guard, free-standing handrails and finely designed steps underline the high level of detail of the model. The driver's cab offers an unobstructed view, allowing the interior fittings and printing to come into their own.
The frame and wheels are made of metal, which provides additional stability and a realistic mass. The body, on the other hand, is made of high-quality plastic, which enables finely detailed painting and printing. The finely designed running gear and three-point bearings ensure optimum running characteristics and stable handling, even on uneven tracks.
The model is equipped with maintenance-free LEDs which ensure that the light changes between red and white. In the digital version (EXTRA), the locomotive offers further extensive lighting functions such as shunting light, individually switchable tail light and driver's cab lighting. Thanks to optimized light control and flicker-free light (due to a stabilized 5V power supply), the locomotive is reliable even in complex operating situations.
The locomotive is equipped with a PluX22 interface, which makes it easy to upgrade to a digital version with sound function. In the digital version (EXTRA), you benefit from original sounds specific to the model series, which offer realistic sound experiences thanks to the latest 16-bit sound technology with up to 8 independent channels. In addition, the optimized motor and load control as well as the integrated energy storage system ensure smooth and uninterrupted operation.
The model has an NEM coupler pocket with close coupler kinematics, which enables flexible train combinations. The filigree electric coupler (interchangeable in the digital version) ensures a secure connection and can be changed easily thanks to the NEM standard. The finely detailed running gear and precise motor control ensure smooth starting and excellent running characteristics.
With its detailed reproduction, the option of digitalization and the extensive light and sound functions, the Brawa 40674 diesel locomotive is a must for collectors and model railroaders. It is ideal for use in shunting service, in front of transfer trains or in suburban traffic and enriches every H0 layout with its authentic appearance and prototypical driving behavior.
To ensure the longevity of the locomotive, the couplings and running gear should be cleaned regularly. The installation of a decoder or retrofitting of the digital version should be carried out according to the instructions. Thanks to the maintenance-free LED lighting and the sturdy construction, the locomotive is particularly easy to maintain.
The Brawa 40674 H0 diesel locomotive 236 118-6 offers a historic design paired with state-of-the-art model railroad technology. Its detailed design, digital options and excellent running characteristics make it the perfect choice for demanding model railroaders and collectors. With this locomotive, you can experience a piece of railroad history on your H0 layout.
