Description

7710007 H0 8-piece set RABe 502 multiple unit, SBB, Era VI, DC sound: A digital delight for model railroad fans

The 8-part RABe 502 long-distance double-decker train, also known as the FV-Dosto, is an outstanding new design that impressively translates modern Swiss railroad technology into the 1:87 (H0) scale. With extensive digital functions, integrated sound equipment and illuminated train destination displays, this model is a real eye-catcher and a technical masterpiece. The set brings the everyday life of Swiss rail transportation, in which the RABe 502 plays a central role, directly to your model railway layout.

The prototype: RABe 502 - Swiss precision and reliability

The RABe 502 double-decker train was developed to meet the requirements of modern long-distance transportation. With 62 units on order, it is SBB's largest train fleet and connects important cities such as Geneva, Zurich, St. Gallen and Basel on a daily basis. The FV-Dosto trains stand for high capacity, contemporary comfort and advanced technology.

The model reflects these advantages with great attention to detail and sets new standards in terms of design and functionality. Whether the striking color scheme, the illuminated train destination displays or the modern interior design - the RABe 502 is impressive across the board.

The manufacturer: Innovation and perfection in model making

This model comes from a leading manufacturer of model railroads that is known for precision, quality and technological innovation. The detailed realization of the RABe 502 demonstrates the manufacturer's expertise in the reproduction of modern rail vehicles. The set has been specially developed for discerning collectors and model train enthusiasts who value high technical standards and aesthetic perfection.

Era VI: Modern railroad history brought to life

The RABe 502 belongs to Era VI, which begins in 2007 and extends to the present day. This period is characterized by technological advances and the growing importance of sustainable mobility. The train is a symbol of the modern Swiss railroad landscape and is ideal for model railroad layouts that depict current scenarios and transport technologies.

Color scheme and design

The characteristic color scheme of the SBB-RABe 502 - an elegant red combined with white - is perfectly reproduced in the model with high-quality printing. The illuminated train destination displays on the fronts and car bodies as well as the detailed interior lighting underline the authenticity of the model. The finely crafted details such as roof lines, doors and window frames also contribute to the realistic appearance.

Digital functions and sound

The model impresses with its extensive digital functions. In digital mode, the high beam and driver's cab lighting can be switched individually, which enables an even more realistic representation of driving operation. The integrated sound decoder provides authentic sounds such as starting, braking and the typical driving noises of a double-decker train. The combination of sound and lighting makes every journey an experience.

Outstanding quality and technical innovation

The current-carrying couplings between the cars guarantee reliable power transmission, while the LEDs ensure even and long-lasting lighting. With the close coupling kinematics in accordance with NEM and the stable construction, the model offers excellent running characteristics. These features make the RABe 502 not only a visual highlight, but also a technical showpiece.

Scope of delivery

The set contains all eight cars of the RABe 502, detailed operating instructions and protective packaging. Thanks to the careful packaging, the model is optimally protected against damage and can be stored safely.

Care and maintenance

To ensure the service life of the model, it is advisable to clean the wheels and couplings regularly. The lighting and moving parts such as the couplings should also be checked and lightly oiled if necessary. The electronics should be protected from moisture and the model should be stored dust-free in order to maintain its functionality and brilliant colors in the long term.

Conclusion and purchase recommendation

The RABe 502 with digital sound is an absolute must for anyone who wants to experience contemporary railroad technology on their model railway layout. Its combination of technical precision, digital versatility and prototypical implementation makes it a highlight for every collector. With its impressive attention to detail, wide range of functions and high-quality workmanship, this model is an asset to any H0 layout.
