Märklin 36967 H0 Regio Shuttle RS1 Diesel Railcar: Modern Model of the ČD for Era VI

The Märklin 36967 H0 Czech State Railroad (ČD) Regio Shuttle RS1 (class 840) diesel rail car is a detailed model of a modern commuter train. With its light gray-sky blue basic paint scheme and the low train destination display, this model represents the current appearance of the Regio Shuttle RS1 in service as of 2020. The completely new design, equipped with an mfx/DCC decoder, LED interior lighting and numerous separately applied details, makes this railcar a highlight for model railroad layouts.

The prototype: ČD Regio Shuttle RS1

The RS1 Regio Shuttle is a universal diesel railcar that is used in local transportation in many European countries. The class 840 of the Czech State Railways (ČD) mainly serves rural routes and connects smaller towns with larger transport networks. The railcar shown here with the road number 840 006-1 has been in service since 2020 and is a prime example of modern mobility in Era VI.

Märklin - precision and innovation

The model of the Regio Shuttle RS1 is a completely new design and shows Märklin's commitment to technical innovation and detailed reproduction. The standard built-in mfx/DCC decoder offers a variety of sound functions, while the LED interior lighting and the maintenance-free LEDs provide an authentic representation. The high-quality materials and precise workmanship make this model especially durable and realistic.

Technical Highlights of the Märklin 36967

The powered rail car is equipped with controlled high-efficiency propulsion that drives two axles. Traction tires provide optimum traction, and the triple headlights and the red marker lights change over with the direction of travel. The double A light function and the signals that can be switched off separately increase the realism in operation. Many separately applied details, such as brake hoses, screw couplings and control lines, underline the high level of detail of the model.

Flexibility and expansion options

The buffer height complies with the NEM standards and the minimum radius that can be covered is 360 mm. Opened panels, shorter control lines and a coupling rod are included for double traction. Other variants of the Regio Shuttle RS1 are available under item numbers 36965 and 36966. The model is available as a Trix version for DC railroaders under item number 25967.
