Description

Fleischmann 7560056 N gauge electric locomotive 193 696-2, CD, Era VI: Modern technology with a unique design

The Fleischmann 7560056 N-gauge electric locomotive 193 696 "CD Bike" brings the charm of the modern Czech railroad to your home. With its current design, which advertises the "CD Bike" bicycle rental service, it combines innovative technology with a unique appearance. This model is perfect for model railroad layouts that represent cross-border express train traffic.

The prototype: 193 696 "CD Bike" - innovative and versatile

Since 2017, the Czech State Railways (ČD) has been using Vectron locomotives for international express train services. With their high performance, these locomotives cover routes between Prague and major cities such as Berlin, Hamburg, Kiel and Budapest. The 193 696 is a highlight of this modern locomotive fleet: with its eye-catching design, it advertises the "CD Bike" bicycle rental service, which underlines ČD's environmentally friendly approach.

With an output of 6,400 kW and a maximum speed of 200 km/h, the Vectron locomotive is ideal for cross-border operations. Its use on EuroCity routes makes it an important part of international rail traffic.

Era VI: Progress and internationalization

Era VI is characterized by advanced technology and increasing internationalization in rail transport. The 193 696 electric locomotive with its innovative design and versatile applications is a prime example of this development.

Technical features and equipment

The model has a finely detailed design, including an elaborate roof design and realistically reproduced pantographs. The light changes between red and white depending on the direction of travel using long-life LEDs. The head and tail lights can be individually adjusted using a DIP switch.

The locomotive is equipped with a Next18 interface, which allows easy retrofitting with digital technology. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 119 mm and a minimum radius of 192 mm, it is perfectly suited for N-gauge layouts. The close-coupling kinematics ensure smooth operation.

Design and workmanship

The "CD Bike" design is elaborately printed and includes realistic details such as a QR code on the side surface. The precise workmanship and fine paintwork make this model a real eye-catcher. The model combines modern technology with a visually appealing appearance that reflects the character of the Czech railroad landscape.

Care and maintenance

The model requires little maintenance, but should be cleaned regularly to remove dust and dirt. The moving parts such as axles and couplings can be lightly oiled if necessary to ensure optimum operation. The LEDs and robust components guarantee a long service life.
