Jägerndorfer Collection JC12800 H0 Electric Locomotive E88 212, DRG, Era II, AC-Digital

Historic electric locomotive technology for classic freight train operations: The Jägerndorfer Collection JC12800 H0 E88 212 Electric Locomotive, DRG, Era II, AC-Digital brings a distinctive electric locomotive from the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft to your H0 layout. The model is designed for the 3L AC system, is digitally equipped, and is ideal for Era II scenes featuring early electric train operations.

DRG E88.2 with historical reference

The ongoing electrification of the Westbahn created a need for powerful electric freight locomotives. The electrical components for all 22 locomotives were supplied by AEG. The mechanical components for the first 15 units were manufactured by the StEG Locomotive Factory, while the remaining 7 units were built at the Floridsdorf Locomotive Factory.

The locomotives were used by the Deutsche Reichsbahn as the E88.2. In the early 1950s, they returned to Austria, where they continued service as the Class 1280. All locomotives were eventually taken out of service by 1976. The E88 212 is therefore an exciting model for collectors and layout operators interested in early electric freight train traction.

AC-Digital with LED headlight mode switching

The model is digitally equipped and designed for the 3L AC system. Sound is not included in this version. The white light change creates an authentic effect during operation, while LED bulbs provide long-lasting and clear illumination.

For DRG train formations of Era II

The NEM-compliant coupler housing with KK kinematics allows for seamless integration into compatible H0 train formations. This makes the E88 212 easy to combine with historic freight cars or matching Reichsbahn formations.

Enhance your H0 layout with the Jägerndorfer Collection JC12800 E88 212 and create authentic DRG scenes with digital AC technology and the classic atmosphere of an electric locomotive.
