Description

Trix 22831 H0 Class 110.3 DB Era V DC Electric Locomotive mfx Sound

The Trix 22831 class 110.3 electric locomotive is a detailed H0 model that represents the German Federal Railroad (DB) Era V express locomotive. With its characteristic "crease" and the oriental red paint scheme, it reflects the operating condition around 1993.

Prototype of the locomotive: German Federal Railroad class 110.3

The class 110.3, known for its aerodynamic front with the so-called "crease", was developed as a high-speed locomotive for passenger services. In the 1990s, some of these locomotives were given an oriental red livery and were fitted with rectangular Klatte fan grilles and rectangular engine room windows. The road number 110 314-2 is an example of this rebuilt version without a circumferential rain gutter, apron and buffer cladding.

The German Federal Railroad in Era V

Era V (from 1990) marks the transition from the Deutsche Bundesbahn to Deutsche Bahn AG. During this time, numerous locomotives were modernized and received new paint schemes, such as the oriental red paint scheme of the class 110.3. These measures were intended to standardize the appearance of the railroad and to meet the changed requirements of rail traffic.
