Description

Roco 79394 H0 Steam locomotive 638.2692 of the ÖBB Era III: A masterpiece for model railroad enthusiasts

Prototype of the model: The 638.2692 steam locomotive of the Austrian Federal Railways

The class 638 of the ÖBB is based on the Prussian P 8, later classified as class 38, which is one of the most powerful steam locomotives ever with almost 4,000 units produced. After the turmoil of the two world wars, they were used by almost all European railroad administrations. In the end, five locomotives remained in Austria, which were used for shunting and passenger train services. The 638.2692 is a symbol of the post-war period and the reconstruction phase of the ÖBB.
