With the Trix 25498 Rh 498.1 steam locomotive, you can bring an impressive piece of railroad history to your model railroad layout. This faithful reproduction of the 498.1 heavy express steam locomotive, which is currently at home in Bratislava as the 498.104 museum locomotive of the Železnice Slovenskej Republiky (ŽSR) in operating condition, is from Era VI and combines the latest model railroad technology with classic charm. The locomotive is equipped with a powerful mfx+ digital decoder and offers a variety of digitally controllable light and sound functions that provide an impressive and realistic driving experience.
The Rh 498.1 is one of the heaviest and most powerful express steam locomotives of the former Czechoslovak State Railways (ČSD). These locomotives were designed for the fast and reliable transportation of passenger and express trains on main lines and were known for their high performance and robustness. Today, the Rh 498.104 is preserved as a museum locomotive in operating condition and thrills railroad fans with its impressive appearance and the typical steam locomotive atmosphere. Trix is now bringing this historic locomotive to the H0 layout as a detailed model, allowing model railroaders to experience the flair of this impressive steam locomotive on their layout.
Trix stands for excellent model railroad technology and high quality. The Rh 498.1 model is manufactured in the H0 nominal size and has a sturdy, largely metal body, which makes the locomotive particularly robust and durable. The controlled high-performance drive with flywheel mass in the boiler ensures a smooth and even ride, and drive is via four axles, which also provides the necessary tractive power for longer train combinations. The lighting that depends on the direction of travel and the dynamic, speed-dependent smoke output make the model even more realistic and stand out as a real highlight on the layout.
The Trix 25498 locomotive is equipped with a modern mfx+ digital decoder and allows a large number of digitally controllable functions. The locomotive has lighting that depends on the direction of travel, a three-light headlights on the locomotive and a two-light signal on the tender. The cab lighting can also be controlled digitally and the locomotive license plate is illuminated in a warm white LED light, which is an additional authentic detail. With a built-in smoke insert that can be controlled digitally and is speed-dependent, the model provides an even more realistic steam locomotive atmosphere on the layout.
The most important technical features at a glance:
Particularly impressive is the dynamic smoke emission, which varies depending on the speed of the locomotive and thus simulates the classic steam locomotive feeling in real time. The locomotive is also equipped with a kinematics-guided close coupler between the locomotive and tender, which allows a smooth connection and rounds off the appearance of the model.
The Trix 25498 Rh 498.1 steam locomotive is a first-class model for model railroaders ages 14 and up who have a passion for historic steam locomotives and attention to detail on their layout. The many digitally controllable functions, the realistic smoke generator and the high tractive power make this model suitable for both experienced model railroaders and collectors looking for an impressive highlight. The minimum radius of 437.5 mm and the true-to-scale design make the locomotive ideal for larger layouts with wide curves and plenty of space to develop its full effect.
