Roco 7510111 H0 electric locomotive E.432.012, FS, Ep. II-III, DC-sound Product Details
Three-phase electric locomotive E.432.012, FS, Era II-III, DC sound: An Italian masterpiece from Roco
The E.432.012 three-phase electric locomotive from the Italian State Railways (FS) is an impressive H0 scale model that perfectly captures the elegance and technical innovation of the early electric locomotives. With a black paint scheme, extensive sound functions and fine details, this model is an indispensable highlight for any model railroad layout.
The prototype: E.432 - A pioneer of electrification
In 1927, the Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) purchased a total of 40 class E.432 locomotives from the renowned locomotive factory "Società Ernesto Breda". These machines set new standards in electric traction: with a continuous output of 2,200 kW and a weight of 94 tons, they were both powerful and robust. The three-phase locomotives were initially painted black, which was reminiscent of the appearance of steam locomotives.
In the 1950s, the E.432s were often used on the Brenner line in front of international express trains. The machines with the axle formula 1'D1' were an important part of Italian rail traffic until 1976 and were used for both passenger and freight traffic.

The E.432.012 impresses with a multitude of fine details such as filigree pantographs, numerous separately applied components and a precise reproduction of the original design. The model has a black paint finish that reflects the historical charm of the prototype.
The technical equipment includes a powerful 5-pole motor with flywheel mass and a PluX22 sound decoder with extensive sound functions. LED lighting with switchable functions, including driver's cab and engine room lighting, ensure realistic scenarios on your model railway layout.
Technical details and functions
