Description

Fleischmann 7360026 N gauge diesel locomotive 340-020-3, RENFE, Era IV-V

The Fleischmann 7360026 diesel locomotive 340-020 is a detailed replica of the Spanish class D 340, which was used by RENFE for passenger and freight transport. The model impresses with its precise workmanship and high-quality materials, such as the robust die-cast metal chassis, which ensures a long service life.

The prototype: The RENFE D 340 series

The diesel locomotives of the D 340 series were developed for use on non-electrified lines of the Spanish State Railways (RENFE). They are closely related to the German V 200.1 series and share its characteristic design and technical features. Two examples of this series have been preserved in museums and bear witness to their importance in Spanish rail transport.

Era IV-V: Transition from tradition to modernity

The model represents the state of the D 340 series in eras IV and V. This period marks the transition from traditional rail transport to more modern and efficient operating concepts, in which the locomotives played a key role.

Detailed model design

The locomotive is finely detailed and equipped with precise details such as the characteristic superstructure and true-to-original proportions. The robust design not only ensures a realistic appearance, but also excellent performance on your model railway layout.

Special technical features

The diesel locomotive is equipped with a die-cast metal chassis, which ensures high stability and optimum power transmission. The LED lighting with light change (white) and the precise current consumption via the 2-wire DC system guarantee an authentic driving experience. Thanks to the NEM interface, the locomotive can be retrofitted with a digital decoder if required.

Care and maintenance

The locomotive should be cleaned regularly to remove dust and dirt, especially on the bogies and the power pick-up. All moving parts can be serviced easily if necessary to ensure smooth operation.

Conclusion and purchase recommendation

The Fleischmann 7360026 diesel locomotive 340-020 is a perfect model for collectors and model railroaders who want to enrich their layout with a piece of Spanish railroad history. With its authentic reproduction and high-quality workmanship, it is a highlight of any collection and an enrichment for all those who value historical accuracy.
