Fleischmann 7560105 N BR 120 145-8 WRS Electric Locomotive, Era VI – The Three-Phase Pioneering Locomotive in Ultramarine Blue

The Fleischmann 7560105 brings an extraordinary piece of German railway history to your N-gauge model railroad layout with the Widmer Rail Services (WRS) 120 145-8 electric locomotive. The striking ultramarine blue paint scheme, delicate pantographs, and intricately designed roof equipment make this locomotive a real eye-catcher. As an Era VI model, it combines the legendary technology of the DB Class 120 with its current service at a private railroad company.

Prototype: The legendary Deutsche Bahn Class 120

The Class 120 is considered a technical milestone in railway history. It was the world’s first series-produced three-phase AC electric locomotive class and paved the way for numerous modern electric locomotives. The 120 145, which entered service in the late 1980s, was originally used on high-quality long-distance routes by the Deutsche Bundesbahn and later by Deutsche Bahn. Since 2019, the locomotive has been part of the Widmer Rail Services (WRS) fleet. In its striking ultramarine blue livery, it now handles special services, transfer runs, and freight transport tasks, among other duties.

Model Specifications & Digital Interface

The Fleischmann BR 120 145-8 is designed for analog DC operation and features a flywheel drive. Four powered axles and two traction tires ensure reliable handling and sufficient tractive effort for longer train formations. For future digitalization, the locomotive features a Next18 interface, through which a compatible digital decoder can be retrofitted. The direction-dependent three-light headlight and the two red tail lights are equipped with LEDs.

Visual Features & Detailed Design

Particularly noteworthy is the elaborate roof design of the Fleischmann 7560105. The multi-part reproduction of the roof equipment and the delicate pantographs underscore the characteristic appearance of the Class 120. Fine windshield wipers complement the prototypical design. The WRS’s striking ultramarine blue paint scheme gives the model an unmistakable character and clearly sets it apart from earlier DB versions.

Usage Options & Compatible Train Formations

The Fleischmann BR 120 145-8 is ideal for modern N-gauge layouts set in Era VI. The WRS locomotive pairs particularly well with contemporary freight cars. Special trains and transfer runs also offer interesting possibilities for varied model railroad operation. Thanks to the NEM 355 coupler socket with close-coupling kinematics, compatible N-gauge cars can be coupled to the locomotive. With a length over buffers of 120 mm and a minimum curve radius of 192 mm, the model can also be used on more compact layouts.

A special model for collectors and railroad enthusiasts

The Fleischmann 7560105 combines the history of a groundbreaking German electric locomotive with an extraordinary modern color scheme. This version is an attractive addition, especially for collectors of the Class 120 series, enthusiasts of private railroads, and N-gauge model railroaders focusing on Era VI. Get your hands on the Fleischmann BR 120 145-8 from the WRS and enrich your model railroad collection with an ultramarine-blue three-phase pioneer!
