Model: HO gauge AC. With mfx+ digital decoder and extensive sound functions. Controlled high-efficiency propulsion with flywheel mass, centrally mounted. The locomotive is powered by two axles per frame. Traction tyres. The two-light headlights and two red marker lights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally. The headlights on locomotive ends 2 and 1 can be turned off separately in digital operation. If the headlights are switched off on both sides of the locomotive, the double A-light works on both sides. Driver's cab lighting can be digitally switched separately. In addition, a starting lamp can be switched digitally depending on the direction of travel. Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs are used for the lighting. Attached handlebars. Driver's cabs and engine room with relief interior. Attachable brake hoses and imitation screw couplings are included separately.
Prototype: Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) class 1020 (ex class E 94) heavy freight electric locomotive. Fir green basic paint scheme. Locomotive road number 1020.27. State of operation around 1955.
In 2009 Märklin celebrated its 150th anniversary. However, from an initially quite wide range of toys, the product range concentrated over time on the manufacture of electric railways in different gauges. The excellent quality of the products made the name Märklin synonymous with model railways worldwide. Even today, the material metal is an essential element in the manufacture of locomotives, which thereby gain additional value in addition to their proverbial reliability and performance.
Märklin H0: The majority of Märklin products are manufactured in this gauge on a scale of 1:87. Due to the high operational reliability of the Märklin H0 three-wire alternating current system, Märklin has contributed to making this gauge the most widely used in the world. All Märklin H0 locomotives have been digitally controllable as standard since 2000.
Märklin Z-gauge: Model railway enthusiasts do not only opt for Z-gauge on a scale of 1:220 when space is limited. In Europe Märklin is the only large-scale manufacturer of Z-gauge, which appeals not only to passionate layout builders but also to collectors.
