Description

7720007 H0 8-piece set RABe 502 multiple unit, SBB, Era VI, AC sound: Perfection in H0 scale for AC systems

The 8-piece RABe 502 long-distance double-decker train, also known as the FV-Dosto, is a detailed new design that brings modern Swiss railroad technology to a scale of 1:87 (H0). With comprehensive digital functions, an integrated sound decoder and illuminated train destination displays, this model is the perfect addition to AC model railroad layouts. It combines technological precision with a prototypical design to authentically depict the modern Swiss railroad landscape.

The prototype: RABe 502 - A symbol of modern mobility

The RABe 502 double-decker trains characterize the face of Swiss long-distance transport. With 62 units, they form the largest fleet of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) and stand for high comfort, capacity and efficiency. The FV-Dosto trains connect cities such as Geneva, Zurich, St. Gallen and Basel and make a significant contribution to mobility in Switzerland.

This H0 model incorporates all the characteristic features of the original and impresses with its precise realization. From the striking design to the functional details such as train destination displays and illuminated car bodies, the impressive modernity of the prototype comes to life on your layout.

The manufacturer: Technological excellence and attention to detail

The model was developed by a renowned manufacturer of AC model railroads. With decades of experience in the field of H0 models, the manufacturer guarantees the highest quality and innovative technologies. The integrated sound decoder, the current-carrying couplers and the prototypical LED lighting make the RABe 502 a masterpiece of the art of model building.

Era VI: Contemporary railroad landscapes

The RABe 502 belongs to Era VI, which extends from 2007 to the present day. This period is characterized by state-of-the-art technology and sustainable mobility solutions. The train is a perfect fit for layouts that want to depict current scenarios and the modern world of railroading.

Color scheme and design

The model impresses with its precise color scheme, which authentically reproduces the red and white design of the SBB. The illuminated train destination displays on the fronts and car bodies set realistic accents, while the filigree reproduction of doors, windows and roof lines underlines the high level of detail. Inside, the LED interior lighting creates an atmospheric ambience that completes the realistic experience on your layout.

Digital features and sound

This model is specially designed for digital operation on AC systems. With switchable high beam and driver's cab lighting, it enables a prototypical representation of driving operation. The integrated sound decoder provides authentic sounds, including starting and braking noises as well as typical operating noises of a modern double-decker train. The combination of digital control, lighting and sound creates a fascinating overall experience.

Quality and technical innovation

The technical features of the RABe 502 in the AC version are impressive. The current-carrying couplers between the cars guarantee reliable power transmission, while the LED lights ensure uniform and long-lasting lighting. The coupling system with NEM shaft and close coupler kinematics ensures optimum running characteristics. These high-quality features make the model a highlight both technically and visually.

Scope of delivery

The set includes all eight cars of the RABe 502 multiple unit as well as detailed operating instructions. High-quality packaging protects the model during transportation and storage.

Care and maintenance

To maintain the functionality and attractive appearance of the model, the wheels and couplings should be cleaned regularly. The LED lighting and electronic components are low-maintenance, but should be protected from moisture and dust. Moving parts such as couplings and bogies can be lightly oiled if necessary.

Conclusion and purchase recommendation

The RABe 502 with AC sound is an exceptional model that perfectly combines the latest technology and prototypical design. With its digital versatility, high-quality materials and detailed realization, this set is the ideal choice for discerning collectors and model railway fans. Whether as a highlight on your layout or as an addition to a modern train fleet - this model is an indispensable piece of modern railroad history.
