With the Roco 7380005 BR 232 diesel locomotive, Roco offers a highly detailed model of the famous "Ludmilla", which is designed for use on TT model railroad layouts in Era VI. This diesel locomotive, operated by the railroad company Erfurter Bahnservice (EBS), stands for reliability and versatility and is ideal for transporting freight and special trains. Thanks to its striking design and the special adaptations made by EBS, the class 232 is a highlight for every model railroader who appreciates realistic details and a robust design.
The class 232, also known by the nickname "Ludmilla", was originally manufactured in the Soviet Union and came to Germany in the 1970s. The German Reichsbahn of the GDR procured these powerful diesel locomotives especially for heavy freight train services and for use on branch lines. After German reunification, Deutsche Bahn took over many of these locomotives and they continued to be used throughout the country. Thanks to their high tractive power and versatility, the BR 232 locomotives are still in operation today with private railroad companies such as Erfurter Bahnservice GmbH (EBS).
Erfurter Bahnservice GmbH (EBS) uses the BR 232 for freight transport and occasionally for special passenger services. With its own workshop in Karsdorf, EBS carries out a lot of maintenance and repair work itself, thus ensuring the reliable operation of its locomotives. The BR 232 is known for its longevity and versatility and is also appreciated by railroad enthusiasts and model railroaders alike due to its robust construction.
Roco is known for its high-quality model railroads and once again demonstrates its precision and quality with the 7380005 BR 232. The model is in the TT nominal size and is perfect for use on Epoch VI layouts. The locomotive is reproduced in detail on a scale of 1:120 and has a variety of technical functions that enhance it both visually and functionally. The locomotive is analog for the DC system and can be controlled with a DIP switch, which can be used to switch the headlights and marker lights depending on the direction of travel.
The model is equipped with a PluX16 interface plug, which allows easy retrofitting if digitization is desired at a later date. The locomotive has a robust design and high tractive power, which is supported by six driven axles and two traction tires to pull even longer freight trains with ease.
The Roco BR 232 model offers a wide range of technical functions that make it a worthwhile investment for TT model railway layouts. With a length over buffers of 174 mm and a minimum radius of 267 mm, the locomotive is suitable for a wide variety of layouts. It has a three-light headlight and two-color tail lights that change automatically depending on the direction of travel. The light change can be controlled via a DIP switch so that model railroaders have full control over the lighting.
The model is designed for the direct current system (DC), which allows easy integration into analog layouts. Thanks to the NEM 358 coupling shafts without close coupling kinematics, the locomotive can be used flexibly and offers a high degree of realism both in terms of representation and function. The robust design and excellent tractive power make the class 232 ideal for operation with heavy freight trains, as they are depicted on many Era VI layouts.
The Roco 7380005 BR 232 diesel locomotive is an excellent choice for model railroaders looking for a powerful and realistic locomotive. Its detailed design, extensive technical functions and robust materials make it a valuable highlight on any TT model railway layout. Whether for freight traffic or as tractive power for special trains - the BR 232 impresses with its flexibility and performance.
The high-quality workmanship and easy handling via the DIP switch also make the locomotive attractive for beginners to model railroading. Invest in the Roco BR 232 and experience the fascination of one of the most versatile diesel locomotives in railroad history directly on your layout.
