Model: HO gauge DC. Steam locomotive 064 247 of the Deutsche Bundesbahn. Version with riveted water tanks, free-standing lines on the boiler and leading and trailing wheel sets with disc wheels.

Prototype: From 1928, a total of 520 class 64 locomotives were put into service. The 90 km/h fast locomotives were based on the design principle of the standard steam locomotives, which made the supply of spare parts easier. The locomotives were mainly used on branch lines and to transport passenger trains and light freight trains. At the time of the changeover to computer numbers on January 1, 1968, the Deutsche Bundesbahn still had 52 units in the maintenance stock. In contrast to the DR locomotives, which were mainly used in the northern lowlands, the 64s of the Bundesbahn were only used south of the Main line after 64 446 was handed over from the Hamburg-Rothenburgsort depot to the Plattling depot on April 30, 1966.
Variations of this product
Founded in 1960 as a manufacturer of plastic products (sand buckets, miniature military vehicles), the company is now one of the world's leading providers of model railways as an innovation leader. The first locomotives were produced in 1976. The models were characterized by precision and authenticity right from the start and established the company's reputation for quality early on. In addition, Roco has always thought further about model railways and stimulated the industry with innovations. Over the decades, the wagons that are not shortened in length, the more prototypical tracks with less high rail profiles or the "snag-free" close couplings should be mentioned. A milestone for the future is the cutting-edge Z21 control system, which for the first time combines the virtual and real game worlds and thus raises the play value of model railways to a completely new level. Company headquarters are in Bergheim/Salzburg. Roco has a global presence and, via Modelleisenbahn München GmbH, is a company of Modelleisenbahn Holding GmbH, which also includes the German quality manufacturer Fleischmann. Roco relies on valuable and manual work. This is the only way to create the detailed, highly reliable and functional miniatures. Comprehensive quality management with internal and external quality assurance measures ensures that Roco locomotive and wagon owners receive the best quality and can enjoy their models for a long time. Here, too, Roco is a pioneer. The Roco factory in Arad was the first factory in the model railway industry to be certified according to ISO 9001 by the German DQS GmbH.
