Rivarossi HR2996 H0 Triebwagen X 72500, Regio Calatori, Ep. VI Product Details
Are you looking for a modern diesel railcar with an unusual design for your H0 model railroad?
Then the Rivarossi HR2996 is just the right model for you! The two-part diesel railcar X 72500 from the Romanian private railroad Regio Calatori brings international flair and a modern regional transport atmosphere to your layout. With its striking shape and attractive color scheme, this multiple unit is a real highlight for Era VI fans - ideal for realistic scenarios in modern passenger transport.
Striking design and modern look
The X 72500 impresses with its elegant, aerodynamic shape and a harmonious color scheme in the style of Regio Calatori. This private railroad company now uses the former French railcar on regional services in Romania - an exciting combination of French technology and Eastern European railroad culture. The model impresses with its neatly applied lettering, clear lines and detailed design - both inside and out.
Model with history: From SNCF diesel train to regional commuter train
The X 72500 was originally developed by the French SNCF for regional transport and is characterized by its flexibility and high ride comfort. In the meantime, numerous units have been sold to other operators, including the Romanian Regio Calatori, which uses the vehicle in a new design. The two-part body with spacious boarding areas makes the train ideal for local transport services in structurally strong regions.
Technically convincing - ideal for analog systems
This model is designed for use on 2L DC systems and offers a factory-fitted MTC21 interface for subsequent digitization. The multiple unit is equipped with a reliable motor and offers integrated interior lighting as well as a realistic light change in red/white. Its length of 608 mm makes it an impressive eye-catcher on any layout, especially on branch and main lines in regional traffic.
Who is this model suitable for?
The Rivarossi HR2996 is ideal for model railroaders who are looking for modern vehicles away from the well-known state railroads. This model is a particular enrichment for fans of Eastern European railroad scenery or collectors of international railcars. Its high level of detail makes it suitable for both display case collectors and for regular operation.
