The BR 185 230-0 – a modern electric locomotive from Deutsche Bahn

Are you interested in modern electric locomotives from Deutsche Bahn and would like to expand your collection with a Class 185.2 locomotive? The Roco BR 185 230-0 is based on a generation of locomotives developed by Bombardier Transportation.

The 185.2 series belongs to the class of dual-system electric locomotives and features a crash-optimized locomotive body. The design is engineered for operation on both AC systems commonly used in Europe. Thus, the prototype combines its distinctive design with the ability to operate on different electric rail systems.

The Roco model depicts the Deutsche Bahn AG 185 230 locomotive and is classified as Era VI. It thus offers an interesting addition for model railroad enthusiasts interested in modern electric locomotives and electric freight transport.

Finely detailed design with separately attached snap-on parts

The design of the Roco BR 185 230-0 deserves special attention. The model features numerous separately attached snap-on parts that complement its finely detailed construction.

These details really come into their own upon closer inspection. The attached components ensure that the design is not limited solely to the basic shape of the locomotive body. For collectors who value meticulous craftsmanship in their locomotives, this is an appealing feature.

The Roco 7510227 thus combines the characteristic appearance of the Class 185.2 with a detailed model rendition.

Snowplow on the Chassis and Low Flanges

One of the special features of this version is the snowplow attached to the chassis. Its placement is an integral part of the model’s design and complements the front section of the locomotive.

The wheel sets were also taken into account in this version. They feature low flanges and are thus among the standout design features of the Roco BR 185 230-0.

If you enjoy viewing your locomotives from different angles, this model is particularly worth examining from below. The snowplow and the wheel sets complement the numerous separately attached details on the locomotive body.

Digital Sound and Switchable Lighting Functions

The Roco 7510227 is a digital DC model equipped with sound. A PluX22 digital decoder is included and enables the use of the intended digital functions.

In digital mode, you can selectively control the high beams as well as the headlights and tail lights. This gives the locomotive additional lighting options during model railroad operation.

The model features a direction-dependent three-light headlight and two tail lights. The headlight uses LED technology. The sound system complements these lighting functions with an acoustic element.

This version offers an interesting combination of sound and lighting, particularly for model railroad enthusiasts who not only collect their locomotives but also want to operate them with digital functions.

The Prototype: The Development of the Class 185.2

The 185.2 series was developed by Bombardier Transportation as an electric dual-system locomotive with a crash-optimized body. It is designed for the two AC systems commonly used in Europe.

These include the 15 kV, 16 2/3 Hz AC system and the 25 kV, 50 Hz system. This technical design enables the prototype to operate on different electric rail systems.

The first locomotive of the 185.2 series was delivered to Deutsche Bahn in January 2005. In the years that followed, additional locomotives in the series were delivered. By 2009, DB AG had received a total of 202 locomotives of this series.

As a result, the 185.2 series represents a significant line of locomotives within Deutsche Bahn’s modern fleet. The Roco 185 230-0 is a model of one such locomotive from this generation, built to H0 scale.

Four driven axles and a five-pole motor

The Roco BR 185 230-0 features a five-pole motor and drive on all four axles. A flywheel is also part of the technical specifications. Additionally, one axle is equipped with traction tires.

This drive technology complements the locomotive’s digital features. Together with the PluX22 decoder and the switchable lighting functions, the model provides a solid foundation for digital operation on your H0 DC layout.

Complete details on the drive system, lighting, coupler, and dimensions can be found in the “Features” section.

A Suitable Electric Locomotive for Modern DB Freight Trains

The Roco BR 185 230-0 offers an interesting opportunity to expand your H0 model railroad with a modern electric locomotive from Deutsche Bahn AG. This version is a particularly good choice for collectors of Era VI and enthusiasts of the 185.2 series.

With its finely detailed design, separately attached plug-in parts, and the characteristic snowplow configuration, the model captures key features of the locomotive.

The BR 185 230-0 also serves as an ideal lead locomotive for assembling modern freight trains. This allows you to complement your existing Era VI freight cars with a matching electric locomotive featuring digital sound.
