Description

Roco 7300081 H0 Diesel locomotive BR-232 049, PMT, Ep. V-VI

The Roco 7300081 BR-232 049 diesel locomotive is a powerful model from Pol-Miedz Trans (PMT) and authentically depicts the V-VI era. With its eye-catching paintwork and robust construction, it is a real highlight for model railroaders who want to realistically depict modern heavy haulage in H0 scale.

Prototype and use

The class 232, also known as the "Ludmilla", was originally manufactured in the Soviet Union and was used in large numbers for freight and passenger transportation in Germany and Eastern Europe. The BR-232 049 locomotive shown here is operated by the Polish Pol-Miedz Trans (PMT) and is mainly used for heavy freight traffic. With its distinctive appearance and special paint scheme, it is an unmistakable part of modern railroad operations.

Detailed model design

The model impresses with its eye-catching color scheme and numerous finely executed details. It has a robust design and is designed for reliable operation with long and heavy freight trains. The combination of prototypical design and solid technology makes it an ideal locomotive for the discerning model railroader.

Technical equipment

The locomotive has six powered axles, two of which have traction tires for additional tractive power. A flywheel mass ensures smooth running characteristics and stable operation even with long trains. The headlights, which are dependent on the direction of travel, are equipped with modern LED technology and change realistically between 3 headlights and 2 tail lights. The locomotive can be easily digitized via the PluX22 interface.

Use on the model railroad

With a length of 237 mm over buffers and a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive can be used universally on H0 layouts. It is perfectly suited for use in heavy freight traffic and ensures a prototypical train appearance with long block trains. Thanks to the NEM 362 coupler pockets, the locomotive can be easily integrated into existing train formations.
