Roco 7520101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0, BLS-Cargo, Ep. VI, AC-sound Product Details

Roco 7520101 H0 Electric locomotive Re 486 501-0, BLS Cargo, Ep. VI, AC sound: Authentic performance for your model railway

The Roco electric locomotive Re 486 501-0 from BLS Cargo is a precise replica of the modern Traxx F140 MS2e locomotive, which was designed for cross-border freight traffic across the Alps. With excellent AC sound, digital functions and a detailed design, this model is a perfect choice for model railroaders who want to realistically recreate modern international rail traffic.

The prototype: Re 486 501-0 - Powerful in international traffic

The Re 486 501-0 is one of a series of ten multi-system locomotives ordered by BLS Cargo in 2007. These locomotives are designed for use in Switzerland as well as in Germany, Austria and Italy. They were specially developed for traffic over the Alps and the new Rothrist - Mattstetten line as well as the Lötschberg Base Tunnel. The locomotives were given the designation Re 486, and the 486 501-0 is the only model in the series to bear the Beura Cardezza coat of arms. The new design with an alpinist above a crevasse was first realized on locomotive 486 510 and was later used on the other locomotives in the series.

Detailed design and digital functions

The Roco 7520101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0 offers a multitude of finely crafted details. Many parts are separately applied and some are etched, making the model particularly precise and authentic. The rail scraper on the chassis gives the locomotive an additional realistic touch for use in the mountains. In digital operation, the model offers the option of switching the main beam and the headlights or marker lights individually, which provides even greater flexibility in the representation.

Technical features and lighting

The model is designed for operation with 3L alternating current (AC) and is equipped with LEDs that allow the light to change between red and white. The locomotive has a length over buffers (LüP) of 217 mm and requires a minimum radius of 360 mm, making it ideal for use on standard H0 layouts. The NEM coupling system with close coupling kinematics ensures stable coupling with other vehicles and enables a reliable connection.

Why this model is an enrichment for your collection

The Roco 7520101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0 is an excellent choice for model railroaders who want to recreate international freight traffic and modern Swiss railroad technology. With its digital functions, realistic sound and precise lighting, this locomotive offers an impressive model for any layout. It fits perfectly into scenarios that recreate cross-border traffic through the Alps and brings a piece of real Swiss engineering into your model railroad world.

Care and maintenance

The LEDs and AC sound decoder are maintenance-free, but the wheels and couplers should be cleaned regularly to ensure consistently high performance. The fine details and high quality paintwork require careful handling to avoid scratches or damage. Dust can be removed with a soft brush to preserve the brilliant appearance of the model.

Conclusion: A must-have for BLS Cargo model train fans

With the Roco 7520101 H0 electric locomotive Re 486 501-0, you can add a precise replica of one of the most important BLS Cargo locomotives to your collection. The modern functions, the detailed design and the excellent sound make this locomotive a first-class choice for anyone who wants to authentically recreate international freight traffic and Swiss railroad technology of Era VI.
