The "Babelsberger" - striking, powerful, legendary

The class 118 diesel locomotive - formerly the V 180 - was one of the DR's first heavy diesel types and was produced by VEB Lokomotivbau "Karl Marx" in Babelsberg from 1962. With two engines of 900 hp each, it was designed for universal use and dominated the main lines of the GDR for decades. The locomotive reproduced here with the road number 118 158 was based in the Rostock depot of the Schwerin station.

True to the original details - unmistakable appearance

The Roco BR 118 impresses with its fine paintwork in double belly band and angular door cut-out. The engine room is also realistically reproduced with the typical window/fan combination. A real eye-catcher with a high recognition value and a strong historical connection to DR Era IV.

Digital highlights for a realistic driving experience

Equipped with a PluX22 digital decoder, the model offers realistic sound and extensive lighting functions. These include separately switchable headlights/tail lights, driver's cab lighting and engine room lighting - perfect for night operation or shunting scenes with atmosphere.

Technology for demanding AC drivers

A powerful 5-pole motor together with flywheel mass and three driven axles (two with traction tires) ensure prototypical power development. The locomotive also runs reliably through tight radii from 358 mm. The built-in buffer capacitor ensures an uninterrupted power supply - even in difficult track conditions.
