Description

Roco 7510075 H0 Cogwheel electric locomotive of the Sonnblick Railway with DC sound: Technical masterpiece of eras III-IV

The Roco 7510075 H0 c ogwheel electric locomotive of the Sonnblick Railway, inspired by the E 69 series, combines impressive cogwheel technology with modern digital equipment. With switchable shunting light, cab lighting and authentic sound module, it offers a fascinating driving experience for demanding model railway layouts.

The prototype: Cog railroad of the Sonnblick-Bahn

Cogwheel railroads fascinate with their unique combination of challenging routes and breathtaking mountain scenery. These railroads overcome extreme gradients using a rack and pinion system located in the middle of the track. The model of the Sonnblick-Bahn represents a fictitious example of such railroads, which can be found in the Alps in particular. Cogwheel railroads of the so-called mixed system manage both rack and friction lines with one and the same locomotive.

Era III-IV: Innovation and mountain romance

Era III-IV (1945-1970) marks a period of technical progress in which electric locomotives were increasingly used. Cogwheel railroads, which revolutionized tourism and regional freight transport in mountain regions, are a symbol of this era.

Color scheme and design

The rack railroad electric locomotive impresses with its functional design and compact construction. With a length over buffers of 100 mm and the typical 3 headlights, it offers an authentic representation. The cab lighting and the switchable shunting light underline the high level of detail of the model.

Recommended purchase for model railroaders
