Description

Roco 7500101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0, BLS-Cargo, Ep. VI Product Details

Roco 7500101 H0 Electric locomotive Re 486 501-0, BLS Cargo, Ep. VI: Precision in Alpine traffic

The Roco Re 486 501-0 electric locomotive from the Swiss railroad company BLS Cargo is an excellent replica of the TRAXX F140 MS2e locomotive, which was designed for cross-border freight traffic across the Alps. With modern functions and a detailed design, this model offers a realistic insight into international rail traffic in Era VI.

The prototype: Re 486 - A BLS Cargo classic

In September 2007, BLS Cargo was the only Swiss company to order ten TRAXX F140 MS2e locomotives, including the Re 486 501-0, which were specially developed for use across the Alps and for cross-border freight traffic in Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Italy. The locomotives are equipped with the necessary equipment for operation over the new Rothrist - Mattstetten line and the Lötschberg Base Tunnel. The Re 486 501-0 is the only model in the series to bear the Beura Cardezza coat of arms and reflects the new BLS design, which was first realized in 2022 with the 486 510 locomotive.

Detailed design and technical features

The model of the Roco Re 486 501-0 impresses with its detailed design. The locomotive has separately attached plug-in parts, some of which are made using etching technology, which gives the locomotive an extraordinary authenticity. A particular highlight is the rail scraper on the chassis, which makes the model even more realistic for use in the mountains. In digital operation, the locomotive has switchable headlights and marker lights that can be individually controlled via a DIP switch.

Technical features and lighting

The Roco Re 486 501-0 is designed for operation with direct current (DC). The model has high-quality LED lighting that provides a realistic change of light between red and white. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 217 mm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the locomotive fits perfectly on standard H0 track systems. The NEM coupling system with close coupling kinematics guarantees reliable and stable coupling with other vehicles and makes it easy to put together train compositions.

Why this model is an enrichment for your collection

The Roco 7500101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0 is the ideal choice for model railroaders who want to realistically recreate cross-border freight traffic in the Alps. With precise lighting, detailed design and digital control for lighting functions, this locomotive offers an impressive driving experience. It is suitable for both digital operating environments and classic H0 layouts and complements any collection of model railroad fans who are enthusiastic about modern freight traffic.

Care and maintenance

The LEDs and the mechanical components of the model are maintenance-free, but the wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly to ensure smooth operation. The intricate details and high-quality paintwork require careful handling. Dust can be carefully removed with a soft brush to preserve the brilliant appearance of the model and extend its service life.

Conclusion: Authentic performance for your model railway

The Roco 7500101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0 is a technical masterpiece for your model railroad. The precise reproduction, realistic lighting and digital functions make this model an indispensable addition to any collection.
