The prototype of the Rh 1010: An Austrian locomotive legend
The Rh 1010 was one of the first electrically powered locomotives of the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB), which was specially designed for use on main lines. These powerful machines were developed in the 1950s to meet the increasing demands of passenger and freight traffic. With its striking design and characteristic ventilation grilles, the Rh 1010 shaped the image of the ÖBB in the second half of the 20th century.
In Era V (1990 to 2006), the Rh 1010 was given a new appearance, which was characterized by modern colour schemes and adaptations for operation on electrified lines. The locomotive continued to be used for various tasks, from fast intercity trains to heavy freight trains. This versatility makes it a fascinating model for model railroad enthusiasts.
