Trix 25490 H0 SJ Era VI F 1200 Steam Locomotive: Digital Model with Sound for Demanding Model Railroaders

The Trix 25490 H0 F 1200 steam locomotive is a detailed model of the Swedish F 1200 steam locomotive of the Statens Järnvägar (SJ) from Era VI. This H0 model (scale 1:87) impresses with its high-quality workmanship, digital control and integrated sound functions that will make the heart of every model train enthusiast beat faster.

Prototype of the model: The F 1200 steam locomotive of the Swedish State Railways

The F class of the Swedish State Railways (SJ) was built between 1914 and 1916 by Nydqvist & Holm AB (NOHAB). The locomotives were mainly used on the main lines between Stockholm-Göteborg and Stockholm-Malmö and were among the largest steam locomotives ever used in Sweden. The F 1200 is now in working order at the Railway Museum in Gävle and is a reminder of the heyday of Swedish steam operation.
