Description

Roco 7510115 H0 Electric locomotive 151 018-9 from Lokomotion with DC sound: Powerful 6-axle locomotive of Era VI

The Roco 7510115 H0 electric locomotive 151 018-9 from Lokomotion is a detailed model of a legendary class that was used for heavy freight traffic across the Alps. With its striking zebra livery, modern digital functions and a realistic sound module, this locomotive is an indispensable highlight for Era VI model railroad layouts.

The prototype: The class 151 at Lokomotion

The Munich-based company Lokomotion has been shaping transalpine freight traffic for over two decades. Known for its eye-catching zebra livery, Lokomotion operates a versatile fleet of rented and own locomotives. The class 151, originally taken over from DB AG, consisted of four machines specially designed for heavy loads. Their six axles and impressive performance made them a workhorse in demanding freight traffic.

In 2024, the use of the class 151 at Lokomotion came to an end, but its legacy lives on in this model.

The railroad company: Lokomotion

Lokomotion is a private railroad company that specializes in international freight transport. The zebra livery of the locomotives is not only a distinguishing feature, but also a symbol of the diversity and efficiency of this company.

Era VI: Modernity and internationalization

Era VI (from 2007) marks the high point of privatization and internationalization in rail transport. Models such as the 151 018-9 locomotive show how classic locomotives were further developed and successfully used by private operators.
