Roco 7500113 H0 Electric locomotive 393 002-1, CD-Cargo, Ep. VI: The most modern two-system locomotive for your model railroad

The Roco electric locomotive 393 002-1 from CD Cargo offers an excellent replica of the modern Vectron AC locomotive, which is designed for international freight traffic on cross-border routes. With its latest design, powerful functions and the finest attention to detail, this model is a perfect choice for all model railroaders who want to recreate modern rail traffic in Europe.

The prototype: CD Cargo electric locomotive 393 002-1

The 393 series from CD Cargo is a dual-system locomotive that can be operated on both 15 kV (16 2/3 Hz) and 25 kV (50 Hz) alternating current systems. These machines were designed for international freight transport and enable versatile use in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Germany and Hungary. In March 2023, the first two locomotives of this type with an auxiliary diesel engine (DPM - Diesel Power Module) were delivered to CD Cargo so that they can also be used flexibly on routes without contact wire or for shunting operations. The 393 series locomotives combine modern technology and high performance and are ideally suited for cross-border operations.

Detailed design and innovative functions

The Roco 393 002-1 impresses with its outstanding attention to detail, which makes the model a real highlight. The roof of the locomotive has been redesigned for the first time, giving it an even more realistic appearance. The design of the rail scraper has also been adapted, bringing the model even closer to the prototype. Free-standing grab rails, partly made of metal, and the elaborate design of the locomotive ensure an authentic appearance. The switchable head and tail lights are particularly practical and can be individually adjusted via a DIP switch to simulate different operating states.

Technical features and lighting

The Roco 393 002-1 is designed for operation with 2L direct current (DC) and offers high-quality LED lighting that provides a light change between red and white. The locomotive has a length over buffers (LüP) of 218 mm and requires a minimum radius of 360 mm, which makes it suitable for many H0 layouts. The NEM coupling system with close coupling kinematics guarantees safe and stable coupling with other vehicles and enables a reliable connection for more complex scenarios on the model railroad.

Why this model is an enrichment for your collection

The Roco 7500113 H0 electric locomotive 393 002-1 is an excellent choice for model railroaders who want to recreate modern international freight traffic. With its advanced technology, detailed design and practical digital functions such as the switchable light, this locomotive is a valuable addition to any collection. The model is particularly suitable for model railroad layouts that want to realistically depict cross-border traffic between several European countries.

Care and maintenance

The LEDs and the mechanical parts of the model are maintenance-free, but the wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly to ensure optimum performance. The fine details and paintwork require careful handling to avoid scratches or damage. Dust can be carefully removed with a soft brush to keep the model in perfect condition.

Conclusion: An innovative model for the model railroad of the future

With the Roco 7500113 H0 electric locomotive 393 002-1, you are getting a modern and technically sophisticated locomotive for your model railroad. The detailed design, the digital functions and the realistic lighting make this model an outstanding choice for anyone who wants to recreate the international railroad operations of Era VI. Experience the versatility and performance of the Vectron locomotive in miniature form on your layout.
