Description

Roco 7520131 H0 Electric locomotive 460 028-4, SBB, Ep. V, AC sound: The 'Locomotive 2000' for your model railway

The Roco 7520131 H0 electric locomotive 460 028-4 is a detailed replica of the legendary Re 460 of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). With its striking aerodynamics, modern functions and the unmistakable christened name 'Seetal', this model brings Swiss railroad flair to your model railway layout.

The prototype: The Re 460 - a symbol of speed and innovation

The Re 460, known as 'Locomotive 2000', is a milestone in Swiss railroad history. The first locomotive of this series left the SLM and BBC workshops in 1992. With its modern design, a top speed of 200 km/h and an output of 6,100 kW, it stands for fast and comfortable passenger transport in Switzerland.

The eye-catching design with its large front window, aerodynamic roof cladding and characteristic side wall beading makes the Re 460 an icon on the rails. The condition reproduced here shows the locomotive in its first years of operation, including the christening name 'Seetal'.

Digital features and technical highlights

This model is equipped with a high-quality AC sound decoder that produces realistic operating sounds and ensures an authentic driving experience. The light functions can be switched individually in digital mode, including high beam, headlights and tail lights.

The extra windscreen wipers and the precise roof design underline the high quality of the model's workmanship. The red-white light change is prototypical and ensures a realistic representation.

Color scheme and design

The locomotive is finished in the classic SBB colour scheme, which emphasizes its elegant appearance. The fine details, including the christened name "Seetal", make this model a visual highlight.

Technical details and compatibility

The electric locomotive is manufactured in H0 scale (1:87) and designed for the 3-wire alternating current system (AC). With a length over buffers (LüP) of 212 mm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, it fits perfectly into numerous system layouts. The NEM coupling shaft with close coupling kinematics (KK kinematics) ensures simple and safe connections.

Care and maintenance

The model is low-maintenance and durable. The LED lighting is energy-saving and does not need replacing. The wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly to ensure smooth operation. Delicate details such as the windshield wipers should be handled with particular care.

Conclusion: Swiss precision and design

The Roco 7520131 H0 electric locomotive 460 028-4 is a perfect choice for model railroaders who want to authentically recreate Swiss passenger traffic. With its advanced technology, realistic sound and impressive attention to detail, it enriches any model railroad layout of Era V. A real highlight for your collection!
