Roco 79268 steam locomotive 01 508, DR, Ep. III (inkl.Sound) AC current/AC Product Details
About the model: The 01 508 steam locomotive is a German State Railroad model and is from Era III. The locomotive is 281 mm long (length over buffers) and has a digital interface. The model is factory-equipped with a sound decoder. It is powered by 5 axles and 2 are equipped with traction tires. Everything else about the model can be found under the features.
About the prototype: The German State Railroad feared that it would be able to provide fewer and fewer locomotives for express trains due to the poor condition of some of the class 01 locomotives. It was therefore decided to rebuild the 01, which also meant an increase in performance and the elimination of faults on the Reichsbahn, and this was particularly successful with this class. The new welded boiler was fitted with a third safety valve. All the boiler superstructures were clad, the driver's cab was modernized and the Witte wind deflectors were bevelled at the front. Because the coupled wheelsets had to be replaced due to broken spokes, some locomotives were fitted with cast steel Boxpok wheels. This made the Reko-01 one of the most powerful express steam locomotives of the post-war period.
