Description

Brawa 43852 H0 Class 187 electric locomotive, 187 513-7, METRANS, Ep. VI - Powerful freight service with the latest technology

The Brawa 43852 H0 Class 187 electric locomotive in the METRANS design stands for reliable performance and state-of-the-art technology. It belongs to the further developed TRAXX 3 platform and is used throughout Europe in heavy freight traffic. With its high-quality sound decoder and impressive attention to detail, it is an absolute highlight for discerning model railroaders.

TRAXX 3 platform - technological excellence

The 187 series was designed as a further development of the successful TRAXX 2 locomotives. In addition to the modified appearance with an aerodynamic front and ribbed side walls, the TRAXX 3 locomotives offer the option of running independently of overhead lines with a last-mile module. This makes them ideal for use in shunting operations or on short, non-electrified lines.

High-quality construction and prototypical details

The finely detailed body with ribbed side walls gives the locomotive an authentic appearance. Etched tread plates, individually attached windshield wipers and many filigree grab irons emphasize the prototypical design. The robust metal frame provides the necessary stability.

Lighting and sound - a realistic driving experience

The locomotive is equipped with LED lighting, which includes a three-light headlight and two red marker lights that change in the direction of travel. The cab lighting and the flashing high beam can be switched true to the original. The built-in sound decoder from Döhler+Haass produces realistic locomotive sounds and ensures a unique driving experience.

Optimized driving characteristics and flexibility

Thanks to the built-in flywheel mass and two traction tires, the locomotive has smooth starting characteristics, even at low speeds or on difficult routes. The close-coupling kinematics in accordance with the NEM standard guarantee smooth operation on the layout. With a minimum radius of 360 mm, it can be used in a variety of ways.

Conclusion: A must for demanding model railroaders

The Brawa 43852 H0 electric locomotive BR 187 in the METRANS version impresses with its combination of state-of-the-art technology, high tractive power and true-to-original design. It is ideal for use in freight traffic and offers a realistic experience thanks to the built-in sound system.
