Description

7110016 H0 Steam locomotive 50.685, ÖBB, Era IV, DC sound: Historic power with modern sound

The 7110016 H0 steam loc omotive 50.685 from the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) brings the mighty class 50 to your model railway layout with impressive authenticity and the latest technology. With an integrated DC sound decoder, finely detailed design and numerous separately applied parts, this model is a technical and visual masterpiece that brings the railroad history of Era IV to life in a fascinating way.

The prototype: The class 50 - workhorse of the railroads

The class 50 freight locomotive was built in 21 locomotive factories between 1939 and 1943, a total of 3,164 units. These machines were designed for heavy freight trains and reached a maximum speed of 80 km/h with an output of around 1,200 kW. After the Second World War, 18 locomotives remained in Austria, 12 of which were adopted into the new ÖBB designation scheme. They remained in service until 1972 and played an important role in Austrian freight transport.

Era IV: tradition meets progress

Era IV (1965-1990) represents the transition from traditional steam locomotives to modern types of propulsion. Locomotives such as the 50.685 symbolize this exciting time in which proven technology met new standards and designs. With the striking ÖBB lettering and additional color accents, this model pays homage to the last great era of steam locomotives.

Design and details

The model impresses with its prototypical color scheme, complemented by the ÖBB logo and subtle color accents. Metal driving and coupling rods, filigree metal wheel sets and numerous separately applied parts such as lines and fittings make this model a real eye-catcher. The high-quality materials and precise workmanship underline the authenticity of the prototype.

Modern technology with integrated sound

The model is equipped with an integrated sound decoder that offers a variety of authentic sounds. From the typical steam development to operating noises such as starting and braking, every journey on your layout is an acoustic experience. The lighting with white LEDs is dependent on the direction of travel and provides a realistic representation of driving operation.

Quality and performance

The locomotive is driven on two axles of the tender and via a cardan shaft on all five driving axles of the locomotive. This design ensures excellent tractive power and smooth running characteristics. The NEM coupling shaft with close coupling kinematics enables simple connection to other vehicles and guarantees smooth operation even in complex layouts.

Scope of delivery

The model is supplied with detailed operating instructions and in protective packaging. This keeps it safe from damage and ready for immediate use.

Care and maintenance

The locomotive should be serviced regularly to ensure a long service life. Dirt should be removed from the wheels and couplings and moving parts should be lightly oiled. The LED lighting and electronics are low-maintenance, but should be protected from moisture and dust to preserve their functionality and visual appearance.

Conclusion and purchase recommendation

The 7110016 H0 steam locomotive 50.685 with DC sound is a must for every model railroader who loves historic railroads and appreciates state-of-the-art technology. The combination of impressive sound, detailed design and solid construction makes this model an indispensable addition to any H0 layout. Immerse yourself in the world of Era IV and experience a piece of Austrian railroad history at the highest level.
