NEW Märklin 38012 H0 Steam Locomotive Class 12.11, ÖBB, Era III, MFX and Sound

Märklin 38012 H0 Steam Locomotive Class 12.11, ÖBB, Era III, MFX and Sound

Are you looking for an impressive express train steam locomotive for your H0 layout that combines Austrian railway history with modern Märklin digital technology? The Märklin 38012 ÖBB Class 12.11 steam locomotive brings an impressive Epoch III express train tender locomotive to the model railroad as a completely new design.

The prototype is the ÖBB Class 12.11 as it appeared in service in 1952. The design, featuring a two-light headlight, small DRG lanterns, large air deflectors, a long dome cover, a closed front end, and a Series 9184 converted tender, makes this locomotive a model with a particularly distinctive character.

ÖBB 12.11 Express Train Tender-Towed Steam Locomotive

The locomotive and tender are largely made of metal and feature a particularly intricate design. Numerous prototypical details on the boiler, frame, and cab ensure a high-quality and authentic appearance.

The regulated high-performance drive with flywheel is located inside the boiler. One axle is directly driven, while three additional axles are driven via connecting rods. Traction tires enhance traction during layout operation.

mfx+ sound, dynamic smoke, and digital lighting functions

The Spielewelt mfx+ digital decoder offers extensive lighting and sound functions. The smoke generator, included as standard, produces speed-dependent, dynamic smoke emission, making the steam locomotive’s operation particularly impressive.

Cab lighting, firebox flickering, and undercarriage lighting are digitally controllable. The two-light headlight, which changes direction depending on the direction of travel, operates conventionally and is also digitally controllable.

Get the Märklin 38012 H0 ÖBB Class 12.11 steam locomotive and expand your collection with a finely detailed express locomotive featuring a metal body, mfx+ sound, a smoke generator, and a strong Era III look.
