NEW Roco 7520275 H0 E-Lok Rh 1245 516-8 ÖBB Ep.IV AC-Sound

Roco 7520275 – ÖBB Electric Locomotive 1245 509-3 in H0 Scale, Era IV, AC Sound

Are you looking for an older-model Austrian electric locomotive to enhance your model railroad with classic railroad operations and authentic sound effects? The Roco 7520275 combines the appearance of the ÖBB Class 1245 with digital sound. Whether shunting in the station or pulling a train set on the open track—this H0 locomotive invites you to recreate everyday railway life from Era IV.

Computer numbers and separately attached details

The model depicts the operational condition as of 1987, complete with computer numbers. Many separately attached plug-in parts give the replica a three-dimensional effect.

Give the locomotive a prominent spot on your layout: in front of the engine house or on the platform, you can take your time admiring the details. During the subsequent run through a recreated Alpine landscape, you can place the locomotive in a fitting Austrian setting.

Factory-installed sound decoder and LED lighting

The AC Sound version features a built-in digital sound decoder and a PluX22 interface. The LED lighting changes direction with the train’s movement.

Use the sound to add an auditory dimension to your operations. Even a short trip from the siding to the waiting group of cars can become a highlight of your layout. For the digital functions, you’ll need a digital controller compatible with the built-in decoder.

Drive System and Dimensions

The set includes three powered axles and a flywheel. The length over buffers is 149 mm, and the specified minimum curve radius is 358 mm.

Incorporate these dimensions into your layout planning and also take into account the requirements of your cars. This will allow you to adapt the set to existing track curves, turnouts, and siding tracks.

The Prototype: Versatile Service on Austrian Routes

The ÖBB Class 1245.500 locomotives were used to haul passenger and freight trains, particularly on steep mountain routes. This versatile range of applications offers numerous ideas for a model railroad schedule with an Austrian focus.

For example, assemble a short passenger train or plan a freight train trip to the next station. Choose the cars that match the time period and the specific real-world scenario you wish to depict.

For your H0 center-conductor layout

The Roco 7520275 is designed for the H0 three-wire AC system. When forming your train, make sure the couplers on your cars are compatible and allow sufficient space for the entire train set.

Even on a smaller layout, it doesn’t always have to be a long-distance trip: changing locomotives, shunting to a different group of cars, or a staging run create additional tasks for your fleet.
