The typical design with the central driver's cab and the characteristic front ends are reproduced true to the original.

Modern technology for a realistic driving experience

Although the E 77 10 is based on a historical model, the model is technically state-of-the-art. It has a 3-light headlamp at the front and a 2-light taillight at the rear, which can be switched depending on the direction of travel. The digital interface in accordance with NEM 662 makes it easy to retrofit a decoder, while the prepared sound function perfects the authentic locomotive experience.

Powerful driving characteristics

With its high tractive power, supported by two traction tires, the locomotive effortlessly masters longer trains on the model railway layout. The robust construction and solid drive ensure smooth operation, even on challenging sections of track.
