Description

Trix 25600 H0 Diesel Locomotive V 60 334, DB, Ep. III: A Versatile Shunting Locomotive of the 1960s

The Trix 25600 H0 diesel locomotive V 60 334 is a detailed reproduction of the well-known switching locomotive of the German Federal Railroad (DB). With its purple-red basic paint scheme and the characteristic cab roof of the early production version, this model reflects the operating condition around 1960 and offers the latest digital functions as well as precise workmanship.

The prototype: The V 60 series of the German Federal Railroad

The V 60 series was developed from the 1950s as a robust and versatile shunting locomotive for use in freight yards, in marshalling yards and on branch lines. The V 60 334 is one of the early series models equipped with a diesel-hydraulic drive and a blind shaft. With its striking purple-red paintwork and the Dofa furnace with coal firing, it embodies the typical style of Era III.

Detailed replica and high-quality workmanship

The model of the V 60 334 impresses with an exact replica of the series features. The driver's cab roof with ventilation flaps, the first shape of the silencer and the coal container on the right-hand side behind the Dofa furnace have been precisely reproduced. Attached metal grab rails and handrails ensure an authentic look and high stability.

Extensive digital functions

The locomotive is equipped with a digital decoder and offers numerous light and sound functions. The three-light headlights depending on the direction of travel and the red marker lights can be controlled digitally. Driver's cab lighting and running gear lighting can be controlled separately. The double A light can also be activated digitally. The lighting is provided by maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs, which ensure a realistic representation.

Powerful technology

The controlled high-performance drive drives one axle directly, while two further axles and the dummy shaft are connected via coupling rods. Traction tires ensure a high tractive force. A buffer storage unit ensures uninterrupted operation even during short sections without power. The locomotive is equipped with Telex couplers at the front and rear, each of which can be switched separately digitally, making shunting easy.

Typical applications

The V 60 334 is ideal for shunting at stations and for short freight trains on branch lines. On your model railway layout, it brings out the atmosphere of the 1960s in an impressive way. Thanks to its compact design and a length over buffers of just 12 cm, it is also ideal for smaller layouts.

Conclusion and recommended purchase

The Trix 25600 H0 diesel locomotive V 60 334 is a high-quality model that impresses with its extensive digital functions, exact reproduction and robust technology. With its historical significance and versatility, it is an excellent choice for collectors and model railroaders who want to authentically recreate Era III.
