Fleischmann 7570105 N Electric Locomotive BR 120 145-8 WRS Ep. VI DC Sound – The Ultramarine Blue Three-Phase Legend

Are you looking for an exceptional electric locomotive for your N-gauge model railroad layout that combines German railway history with modern digital and sound technology? The Fleischmann 7570105 brings the BR 120 145-8 from Widmer Rail Services (WRS)—a true pioneer of three-phase technology—to your layout. With its striking ultramarine blue paint scheme, the locomotive features delicate pantographs, meticulously reproduced roof equipment, and a factory-installed Next18 digital decoder with sound. A special addition for collectors and model railroaders of Era VI.

Prototype: The legendary Deutsche Bahn Class 120

The Class 120 is considered a milestone in European railway history. It was the world’s first series-produced three-phase AC electric locomotive class and laid the foundation for modern electric propulsion technology. 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. For many years, it hauled high-speed passenger trains, thereby shaping the image of German long-distance rail travel. Since 2019, the locomotive has been part of the Widmer Rail Services (WRS) fleet. With its striking ultramarine blue paint scheme, it is used for special services, transfer runs, and freight transport.

Model Features & Digital Sound Functions

The Fleischmann BR 120 145-8 is equipped with a factory-installed Next18 digital decoder with sound and is designed for digital DC operation. The integrated sound functions enhance the driving experience with an authentic soundscape. A flywheel drive ensures smooth running characteristics. All four axles are driven, while two traction tires assist with traction. This makes the locomotive ideal for use at the head of longer freight trains or special train formations.

LED Lighting & Switchable Cab Lighting

The Fleischmann 7570105 also offers interesting digital features when it comes to lighting. The model features a direction-dependent three-light headlight with two red tail lights equipped with LEDs. In digital mode, the headlight and tail lights can be switched on and off. Another special feature is the separately digitally controllable LED cab lighting. This feature creates a realistic model railroad atmosphere, especially during twilight runs, when stopped at a station, or during nighttime transfer runs.

Visual Features & Detailed Design

Particularly noteworthy is the elaborate roof design of the Fleischmann BR 120 145-8. The multi-part reproduction of the roof equipment, delicate pantographs, and fine windshield wipers underscore the characteristic appearance of this groundbreaking electric locomotive. The striking ultramarine blue WRS paint scheme gives the model exceptional recognition value and clearly distinguishes it from earlier DB versions. The elongated locomotive body and the typical front design of the Class 120 series make the locomotive instantly recognizable even at a 1:160 scale.

Compatibility & Versatile Applications

The Fleischmann 7570105 is ideal for modern N-gauge model railroad layouts of Era VI. The WRS locomotive pairs particularly well with contemporary freight cars. Special trains, transfer runs, or the formation of various car combinations also offer interesting possibilities for varied model railroad operations. The NEM 355 coupler housing with close-coupling kinematics allows for combination with compatible N-gauge cars. With a length over buffers of 120 mm and a minimum radius of 192 mm, the locomotive can also be used on more compact layouts.

A Special Sound Model for Collectors & Railroad Enthusiasts

The Fleischmann 7570105 combines the history of a pioneering technical locomotive with an extraordinary modern color scheme and state-of-the-art digital technology. This sound version is an attractive addition, especially for collectors of the Class 120 series, enthusiasts of private railroads, and model railroaders focusing on Era VI. The built-in digital decoder, the switchable cab lighting, and the finely detailed roof equipment make this model a real eye-catcher. Get your hands on the Fleischmann WRS Class 120 145-8 and enrich your N-gauge collection with an ultramarine-blue three-phase legend featuring digital sound!
