Description

Trix 25667 H0 Ae 610 Electric Locomotive, SBB Cargo, Ep. V: The iconic Swiss locomotive in modern service

The Trix 25667 H0 Ae 610 electric locomotive is a faithful reproduction of the powerful SBB Cargo locomotive. With its characteristic ultramarine blue and fiery red paint scheme, the Giubiasco cantonal coat of arms and the modern operating condition as of 2005, this model is an impressive representation of Era V. Thanks to its technical refinements and digital functions, it is a real highlight for any model railroad layout.

The prototype: SBB Cargo Ae 610

The locomotives of the Ae 610 series (formerly Ae 6/6) are considered classics of Swiss railroad technology. Originally designed for heavy freight and passenger traffic on the demanding Alpine routes, some locomotives were modernized and used by SBB Cargo from 2005. With their "Giubiasco" cantonal coat of arms and striking color scheme, these locomotives became a symbol of the efficiency of the Swiss railroads.

Detailed reproduction and high-quality workmanship

The model of the Trix 25667 Ae 610 is impressive with its precise reproduction of the locomotive. The ultramarine blue and fire red paint scheme is prototypical. Numerous applied details such as metal grab irons, finely worked bogies and closed covers for the rail scraper give the model an authentic look. The "Giubiasco" cantonal coat of arms is neatly applied and makes the locomotive a special eye-catcher.

Extensive digital functions

The locomotive is equipped with a digital decoder that offers numerous light and sound functions. The Swiss triple headlights and a white marker light can be controlled digitally depending on the direction of travel. Additional light functions include switching to one or two red marker lights, warning signals and shunting light. The cab and engine room lighting can be controlled separately digitally. Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs provide realistic lighting.

Powerful technology

The controlled high-performance drive with centrally installed flywheel drives two axles in each of the two bogies. Traction tires ensure high tractive power, while a buffer storage unit ensures uninterrupted operation. With a length over buffers of 21 cm and a minimum radius of 360 mm, the model can be used flexibly on different layouts.

Typical applications

The Ae 610 is predestined for heavy freight traffic on main lines and can pull authentically long freight trains on your model railroad layout. It also cuts an excellent figure in combination with Swiss passenger coaches and brings out the atmosphere of Era V in an impressive way.

Conclusion and purchase recommendation

The Trix 25667 H0 Ae 610 electric locomotive is an impressive model that will win you over with its prototypical design, extensive digital functions and sturdy engineering. With its historical significance and versatility, it is a perfect addition to any model railroad layout that wants to authentically recreate Era V.
