Description

Roco 6200077 H0 Set of 4 'Arlberg-Express' passenger coaches, ÖBB, Era IV, Set 1: A journey through Europe

The Roco set of 4 'Arlberg-Express' passenger cars brings the legendary train set of the international express train service of the 1980s to your H0 model railroad layout. This set consists of three express train cars of the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) and a baggage car of the French State Railways (SNCF) and forms an authentic replica of the famous 'Arlberg Express'.

The prototype: The 'Arlberg Express'

The 'Arlberg Express' is one of the trains with a sonorous name whose roots go back to the era of transcontinental luxury trains. Unlike other famous trains such as the Orient Express, its route ran from west to east and right across Austria. Originally conceived as a prestigious train, the 'Arlberg Express' developed over time into an international express train with numerous coaches connecting different regions.

The train ran on the Vienna - Buchs/Basel/Paris route and was supplemented by additional coaches, for example to the Salzkammergut, Carinthia or East Tyrol. These sets make it possible to depict the train in various configurations on the Vienna - Salzburg - Schwarzach St. Veit - Innsbruck - Buchs route.

Detailed design and high-quality workmanship

The set depicts the operating condition of the early 1980s and shows the color scheme of the Eurofima cars as delivered with black running gear. The wagons are finely detailed and have a precise reproduction of the original lettering. This car set is a tribute to the elegant appearance of the international express trains of that era.

Technical features and possible uses

The cars are designed for operation on H0 track systems with a minimum radius of 360 mm. They are equipped with NEM coupling shafts and close coupling kinematics, which ensures reliable and safe operation. The authentic reproduction and versatility in train composition make this set an ideal choice for model railroaders who value historical accuracy.
