Roco 7510143 H0 Electric locomotive BB 126163 'En Voyage', SNCF, Ep. V-VI, DC sound: Modernity with sonorous precision

The Roco 7510143 H0 electric locomotive BB 126163 brings the French rail network to your model railway layout. With its characteristic 'En Voyage' design, a high-quality digital sound decoder and prototypical lighting functions, this locomotive is a real highlight for all fans of modern French multi-purpose locomotives.

The prototype: The BB 26000 - versatility on rails

The BB 26000 series, also known as the 'Sybic', is a dual-system multi-purpose locomotive of the French State Railways (SNCF). Between 1988 and 1998, 234 of these powerful locomotives were built. With a maximum speed of 200 km/h and a continuous output of 5,600 kW, it is suitable for both passenger and freight traffic.

The BB 126163 is a prime example of the versatility of this series. Thanks to its dual-system capability, it can be operated under both 1.5 kV direct current and 25 kV/50 Hz alternating current. The modern 'En Voyage' design underlines its elegance and its importance for the French railroad network of eras V and VI.

Digital features and technical highlights

The model is equipped with a digital sound decoder that provides authentic operating sounds and enriches the driving experience on your model railroad layout. In digital operation, the light functions can be individually switched according to the French model, including the two-light headlights and the red-white light change.

Fine etched parts on the roof and the filigree reproduction of the two different pantographs underline the high quality of workmanship of the model. These details ensure a realistic representation of the locomotive.

Color scheme and design

The 'En Voyage' design has been implemented with great precision and makes the locomotive stand out visually. The harmonious color combination and the detailed printing give the model an impressive authenticity.

Technical details and compatibility

The model is manufactured in H0 scale (1:87) and designed for the 2-wire direct current system (DC). With a length over buffers (LLP) of 204 mm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the locomotive is suitable for a wide range of applications on your layout. The NEM coupling shafts with close coupling kinematics (KK kinematics) enable smooth integration into train formations.

Care and maintenance

The Roco BB 126163 is low-maintenance and robust. The maintenance-free LED light sources provide reliable and long-lasting lighting. The wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly to ensure optimum operating quality. If necessary, moving parts can be easily lubricated.

Conclusion: Digital precision and modern style

The Roco 7510143 H0 electric locomotive BB 126163 combines advanced technology, realistic sound and a modern design. With its prototypical functions and detailed implementation, it is an indispensable model for all those who want to recreate the French railroad history of eras V and VI on their layout.
