Be inspired by the perfection of this H0 locomotive!
The 1042 series of the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) was developed from 1963 as a universal electric locomotive. With a total of 257 machines produced, it was one of ÖBB's most versatile series. From 1966, the locomotives were equipped with more powerful engines in order to reach a top speed of 150 km/h, which led to them being renamed the 1042.5 series. Thanks to the characteristic roof superstructures due to the installation of a resistance brake and the inverted single-arm pantographs, these locomotives were given their unmistakable appearance.
Locomotive 1042 643, which serves as the prototype for this model, was assembled at Simmering-Graz-Pauker (SGP) in Graz in 1975. The electrical part was supplied by ELIN and its service history began with its acceptance in January 1975, leading it in front of fast passenger and freight trains, including cross-border trains to Germany. In 1992, the locomotive was given a Valousek design, which is characterized by the continuous belly band on the front.
The Roco 7510139 model is characterized by numerous exclusive features. For the first time, the 1042 series is presented in the Valousek design with the striking continuous belly band on the front. Company signs on the locomotive body and an enclosed etched sign set emphasize the high level of detail. In digital operation, the model also has switchable headlights and marker lights to make operation on the layout even more realistic.
The 1042 643 in the Valousek design impresses with its striking color scheme, which reflects the typical appearance of Era V. The continuous belly band on the front gives the locomotive a special elegance, while the carefully reproduced inscriptions and signs ensure an authentic representation.

With a true-to-scale structure, digital control and high-quality sound module, the model is perfect for demanding model railway operation.
