The prototype: Euro Cargo Rail class 186

The class 186 is a versatile multi-system locomotive from the Bombardier TRAXX family, which was specially designed for cross-border traffic. The 186 310-9 locomotive is used by Euro Cargo Rail and is suitable for operation in Germany, France and Belgium. Thanks to its high performance and reliability, it is mainly used for freight transport and is a symbol of the internationalization of European rail transport.

Detailed reproduction and high-quality workmanship

The model of the Trix 25804 class 186 has an impressive reproduction that is true to the original. The light gray paint scheme has been implemented with the highest precision, while numerous separately applied details such as grab irons, sand boxes, UIC sockets and roof lines emphasize the high level of detail. The detailed roof superstructures with four newly designed pantographs, which are optimized for use in several countries, make this model a special highlight.

Extensive digital functions

The locomotive is equipped with a digital decoder that offers numerous light and sound functions. The triple headlights that change over with the direction of travel and the red marker lights can be controlled digitally. The high beam and the cab and driver's desk lighting can also be controlled separately digitally. The model also has a double A light function that can be activated digitally. Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs ensure authentic and long-lasting lighting.

Powerful technology

The controlled high-performance drive with centrally installed flywheel mass drives all four axles via cardan shafts. Traction tires ensure high tractive force, while a buffer tank ensures uninterrupted operation. The model is designed for a minimum radius of 360 mm and is therefore very versatile.

Typical applications

The 186 310-9 from Euro Cargo Rail is predestined for international freight traffic on Europe's main lines. On your model railroad layout, the locomotive can represent realistic cross-border freight trains that run through several countries.
