Roco 7310039 H0 diesel locomotive 132 146-2, DR, Ep.IV, DC-sound

About the original: the electrification of the East German rail network came to a halt in the 1950s, mainly due to a lack of power station capacity in the north, the Council of Ministers decided in 1966 that the traction change in the GDR should be achieved primarily with diesel locomotives. The 130 and 131 series were developed and were not entirely convincing. From 1974, the 132 series was put into service, which differed from the 130 series by having a 200 mm longer body, an additional engine room window between driver's cab 1 and the row of windows in the middle of the vehicle and an assembly hatch closed with a coarse-mesh grille. This class 132 was such a great success that the GDR ordered 709 units from the Voroshilovgrad locomotive factory (now Luhansk, Ukraine). Class 132 locomotives were used to haul passenger trains ranging from regional traffic to high-quality express trains, but also for heavy freight traffic.

About the model: With the reproduction of this versatile and iconic DR locomotive, Roco offers a visually and technically convincing model. The model reproduces the paint scheme and design at the time the original locomotive was delivered. A precisely reproduced locomotive body with filigree fan grilles and free-standing handle bars, along with many other small and large details, ensure the outstanding and true-to-original appearance. In order to be able to reproduce trains with a long length, the model has a powerful motor, which transmits its power to 4 axles, resulting in excellent running characteristics and high tractive power. A factory-installed Plux22 decoder enables the use of the various light and sound functions.
