The Brawa 40680 H0 diesel locomotive 236 118-6 brings the history of the class 236 to your model railroad layout in an impressive way. In service for the VTG during Era IV, this model combines the finest detailing with the most modern digital features. The built-in sound decoder from Döhler & Haass, the extensive lighting functions and the high quality of workmanship make this diesel locomotive the perfect choice for discerning model railroaders.
The V36, originally developed for military purposes as the WR 360 C 14, became one of the most widely used diesel locomotives in post-war Germany due to its robust design and versatility. After the end of the Second World War, many of these locomotives found their way to the German Federal Railways and into the fleet of private industrial companies such as VTG. There they were mainly used in shunting services and in front of transfer trains.
Technical modifications such as larger cooling water expansion tanks and simplified reversing train control systems enabled the V36, also under the new designation class 236, to be used for a long time up until the 1980s. Some of these locomotives are still in service on museum railroads today and are a reminder of their important role in German railroad history.
The model impresses with its exact reproduction of the original: an etched radiator guard, free-standing grab rails and finely designed steps ensure a realistic appearance. The driver's cab has a prototypical design and offers a clear view, allowing the precise interior fittings to be seen. The metal frame and wheels give the locomotive additional stability, while the body made of high-quality plastic ensures the finest printing and paintwork.
The locomotive is equipped with maintenance-free LEDs that allow the light to change between red and white. In the digital version, the model offers extensive lighting control, including shunting lights, individually switchable tail lights and driver's cab lighting. The stabilized 5V power supply ensures flicker-free light, which is particularly advantageous when running at night or shunting.
The integrated sound decoder from Döhler & Haass offers construction series-specific sounds that create a realistic sound experience thanks to 16-bit technology and up to 8 independent channels. From the engine noise to the horn and characteristic shunting sounds, the operation of the locomotive on the model railway layout is brought to life. The locomotive is compatible with all common digital systems such as DCC, Motorola, SX1 and SX2.
The three-point suspension of the running gear ensures optimum running characteristics, even on uneven track. The model is designed for a minimum radius of 360 mm and is therefore also suitable for compact layouts. The remote-controlled coupler in the NEM shaft enables simple and flexible coupling - ideal for shunting operations.
With its precise reproduction of the historical prototype, extensive sound equipment and digital control options, the Brawa 40680 diesel locomotive is an absolute must for every model railroader. It is perfect for use in shunting duties or in front of freight trains and enriches every H0 layout with its impressive appearance and technology.
The model requires only minimal maintenance. The maintenance-free LEDs and the robust construction ensure a long service life. However, it is advisable to regularly remove dirt from the wheels, couplings and running gear to ensure optimum running characteristics. The digital decoder requires no regular maintenance and offers reliable functionality for many years.
The Brawa 40680 H0 diesel locomotive 236 118-6 is the perfect combination of historical precision and technical innovation. With its true-to-original design, extensive digital functions and impressive sound, it is the ideal addition to any H0 model railroad layout. Experience the fascination of a legendary locomotive and bring history to life.
