Description

Märklin 88529 Z electric locomotive BR 120, DB AG, Ep. VI Product Details

Märklin 88529 Z Class 120 DB AG Era VI Electric Locomotive: A Milestone in Electric Locomotives in Miniature Format

The Märklin 88529 Z Class 120 DB AG Era VI electric locomotive is an exclusive model that faithfully reproduces the world's first three-phase locomotive built in series in the high performance area in Z scale. The Deutsche Bahn class 120 is a technical masterpiece and a milestone in the development of electric locomotives, as it was the first locomotive with an inverter using semiconductor technology. This limited edition model brings the fascination of this electric locomotive in small format to your model railway layout.

The class 120: revolutionary electric locomotive from Deutsche Bahn

The class 120 was developed in the 1970s and marked a turning point in the technical history of electric locomotives. It was the first three-phase locomotive to be built in series and set new standards in terms of efficiency and performance. This locomotive, which was capable of speeds of up to 200 km/h, was used for both freight and passenger transportation and became the standard locomotive for Deutsche Bahn express trains in the 1980s.

In Era VI, to which this model belongs, the class 120 continued to be operated by Deutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) before it was gradually replaced by more modern locomotives. The distinctive shape and the technical innovations of the class 120 make it one of the best-known locomotives in Germany to this day.

High quality conversion from Märklin in Z scale

With the 88529 BR 120, Märklin has created a model that is impressive even in the small Z scale with its attention to detail and high-quality workmanship. With a length over buffers of 87 mm, this locomotive is a real highlight on any Z scale layout. The locomotive is equipped with a bell-shaped armature motor, which ensures particularly smooth running. Both bogies are powered, which ensures excellent tractive power - even with the small size of this model.

Another technical highlight is the three-light headlights, which change depending on the direction of travel and provide additional authenticity. Thanks to the electric overhead line function, the locomotive is also prepared for operation with overhead lines, whereby the switchover screw is concealed inside, which further emphasizes the aesthetic appearance of the model.

Technical Details of the Märklin BR 120 in Z Gauge

The Märklin 88529 BR 120 model is characterized by many special technical features that make it a powerful and reliable vehicle on the model railroad layout. The bell-type armature motor ensures smooth, quiet operation, while the powered bogies provide excellent tractive effort even with heavier trains.

The locomotive is designed for the direct current (DC) system and does not offer a digital decoder function, which makes it particularly suitable for analog operation. The 3 headlights, which change depending on the direction of travel, are another function that makes the model look particularly realistic. The dark wheel rims blend harmoniously into the appearance of the locomotive and reinforce the impression of an authentic DB AG operational vehicle in Era VI.

Recommended purchase: An exclusive electric locomotive for Z scale enthusiasts
