Dear ROCO model railway fans,
our second “Corona model railway year” now lies behind us. 2021, too, has presented us
with major challenges. And yet, together with you, we have navigated these difficult times
successfully, for which we would like to express our heartfelt thanks.
The high level of interest shown in our new constructions, different form versions and ourdiverse program is what drives and motivates our over 1,000 employees each year anew.

Contents

Therefore, the year 2022 will also be full of highlights such as the class 77 ÖBB steam locomotive, or the redesign of the ICE 1. In addition, ROCO is celebrating an anniversary alongwith the SBB, to honour 175 years of railways in Switzerland. This is reason enough for
ROCO to mark the celebrations with special Swiss models, including the new construction
Ae 3/6I.

H0 Steam locomotives ………………………………………… 4

For fans of goods wagons, the silo wagon Raj will be rolling onto H0 rails as a finely-detailed
and operationally-reliable model, and for narrow gauge fans we have a 2-axle ribbed wagon,
a much-requested and long-awaited model.
In addition to these fantastic new constructions, we have focused on product updates.
ROCO has made it their objective to offer the latest developments in technology on its existingmodels, too. In future, electric and diesel locomotives in the Standard and Edition productcategories will be exclusively constructed with full-scope PluX interfaces; light boards will becomprehensively equipped in the analogue versions, too, and the model range of available
sound models is to be continuously further expanded.

And, speaking of sound models - for the first time, selected models will be appearing featuring
the new ROCO sound in 16-bit quality. These articles will each be marked with their own
logo. You can look forward to a perfect and authentic sound experience, which reproduces
that of the full-size original in even better quality.
We haven’t just given our models upgrades. We have also modernised the Corporate
Design for the ROCO brand in a new shape and colour, and a full revision of our frequentlyvisited ROCO website has begun. You’ll be pleasantly surprised: see more soon on

In 1912, the “k.k. priv. Südbahn-Gesellschaft” ordered a tender locomotive for heavy passenger
train services to replace the class 229 locomotives, which had become too weak. The locomotive factory of the Staats-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft then developed the superheating steam
locomotive class 629, which became the world's first tender locomotive with the Pacific wheel
arrangement 2'C1'. Due to the peculiarities of the track layout and the transfer tables in theworkshops of the Südbahn, the locomotives were not allowed to have a wheel base longer thanten metres. The first locomotive class 629 was delivered to the Südbahn-Gesellschaft in 1913,
and 14 more in a total of three deliveries followed within the next two years.
The outstanding experience with this series prompted the Imperial-Royal Austrian State Railways to purchase 25 almost identical locomotives until the end of the monarchy in 1918. The
outwardly apparent differences laid in the typical Kobel smokestack and the oval front windows.
Compared to the first six Südbahn locomotives, it also excelled with a reinforced buffer beam.
In 1918, several series of the class 629 locomotive were built for the Austrian and Polish State
Railways, and finally, in 1926 and 1927, the last series had no “Kobel” smokestack but enlarged
side water tanks for the BBÖ. With around 200 locomotives, the series continued to be built
mainly at the Skoda works in Pilsen, Czechoslovakia, until the early 1940s. The design wasconstantly adapted to the current state of the art from series to series.
Further proof of the successful design of the class 629 or 77, as designated after 1938, were
the relatively few conversions of the locomotives within their long service period. Conversions
were the change from the Kobel to the Prüßmann smokestack, and then in the 1950s to theGiesl ejector; plus the mounting of various superstructures behind the driver's cab to ensure afluent coal supply.

The particular importance of the locomotives can be seen in the high number of units built inAustria and their long service life. Practically every depot in Austria had, at one time or another,
locomotives of class 77 in its vehicle fleet. The West and Südbahn lines and their branch lines
belonged just as much to the class 77's operational areas as the Inntal or the Lindau-BregenzSt. Margarethen line. The last locomotives were not withdrawn from service until 1975, whenthe end of the steam traction era in Austria approached.

The tender locomotive for passenger trains designated as class 77 by the Austrian Federal
Railways was procured from 1913 (SB/kkStB class 629) in several series until 1927. The Pacific type 2'C1' h2t steam locomotive was authorized to run at a maximum speed of 85 km/h.
Practically every depot in Austria was at one time or another equipped with class 77 locomotives. The West and Südbahn lines and their branch lines were just a part of the 77's
operational area as the Inntal line or the Lindau-Bregenz-St. Margarethen connection. It
was not until 1975 that the last locomotives were decommissioned - with the end of steam
traction in Austria.

The steam locomotive class 86 was a standard locomotive with tender which was built inlarge quantities by numerous German locomotive factories for the German Reichsbahn.
After the war some of the steam locomotives remained in Austria and were used for thepassenger and freight transport. The locomotive also hauled heavy ore trains together withthe class 52 - which definitely was her most spectacular mission! The locomotives had
their main bases at the depots Hieflau, Selzthal, Linz, Bischofshofen and St. Veit (Glan).
They were scrapped in 1972.

Steam locomotive “CYBELE” (Bavarian D VI)

The class D VI locomotives were B n2t wet steam locomotives of the Bavarian State Railway. Maffei delivered the first thirty locomotives from 1880
to 1883. Krauss delivered twenty-three more until 1894. For the first timein Bavarian locomotives history, the K.Bay.Sts.B. used circulation plates andair suction brakes of the type Hardy in these locomotives. The first forty-four
locomotives had no side water tanks. The water was stored in a frame watertank, the coal in the driver's cab. The K.Bay.Sts.B. procured the locomotives
to use them on flatter local railway lines.

The S 160 “The Yank” or “Rattlesnake” were originally war locomotives of the United States
Army Transportation Corps (USATC). These locomotives were planned to be used worldwide
and therefore had an English clearance gauge, one of the smallest for standard gauge
railways. 2,120 units were built, making this class one of the most built locomotives in theworld. The name “Rattlesnake” comes from the characteristic rattling when driving.

Class 10 - The Black Swan of the Bundesbahn. Although the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB)considered steam traction outdated, it commissioned the company Krupp in Essen to develop
a new Pacific express train locomotive in 1953. In 1957 two elegant, 26,503 mm long,partially guarded locomotives with the serial number 10 of the type 2'C1' h3 with a driving
wheel diameter of 2,000 mm were delivered. However, they were distinctly different in theway they were fired.
While the 10 001 was initially equipped with only an additional oil firing (it was retrofitted
later), the 10 002 had a main oil firing from the beginning. The two locomotives werebeautified with silver decorative lines and conical smoke chamber doors and reached a
top speed of 140 km/h at an induction power of 1,839 kW. However, the two locomotives
were only admitted on specific main routes because of the high axle load. Until 1962 they
were stationed in the depot Bebra and later in the depot Kassel from where they operated
the North-South routes in heavy express train service and on the Main-Weser railway lines.
The general infrastructure change and the progressing electrification of the major railway
routes were the main reasons why class 10 was never put into serial production. In January
1967, the 10 002 suffered a break of a sliding rod and was decommissioned. It was
scrapped in 1972 at the depot Offenburg. In June of the following year, 10 001 also had toquit active service at the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB).
However, the 109 t heavy locomotive was preserved for future generations and can beseen today at the German Steam Locomotive Museum in Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg.

WHAT IF...?
The Bavarian S 3/6, often referred to as the “Queen of steam locomotives”, bore thebrunt of the German express train traffic until the introduction of class 01. Not only did it
continue to be built until after 1931, but also because it could cope with long runs thatclass 01 could not do without being “slimmed-down”. And if anyone thinks that a Bavarian
locomotive only ran in Bavaria during the Bundesbahn era, they are mistaken. The
Bavarian locomotives hauled pretty much all the trains that belonged to the crème de lacrème. Although most of the S 3/6s of series a to c were scrapped in 1950, it seems realisticthat one of these legendary express locomotives, like some of its younger sisters, got holdof a DB-Keks and continued to be cherished as an irreplaceable machine by acommitted locomotive crew.

Steam locomotive 053 129-3

The class 50, at that time probably the most important DB steam locomotiveof the 1950/60s with many design variants, had proven itself in front ofalmost all types of trains on main and branch lines. After all, more than 60
variants ensured that hardly any class 50 locomotive had an utterly identical appearance to any sister locomotive. The 1'E goods train locomotives, built in about 3,100 units from 1939 onwards, were robust, powerful,easy to maintain, and highly reliable. After 1945, more than 2,000 locomotives remained with the Deutsche Bundesbahn. The locomotives reached
a top speed of 80 km/h, had a power output of approximately 1,200 kW
and an axle load of 15 tonnes. When the EDP class scheme was introduced
in 1968, there were still 1,452 locomotives in the DB's rolling stock.
Since the serial number could only have three digits, the designations
051, 052 and 053 were introduced in addition to the class number 050.

To meet the huge demand for the building material “sand” in the concrete and slab factories
of Karl-Marx-Stadt and Zwickau large quantities of sand from the sand pits in the Colditzer
Land, had to be transported by rail.
A witness from the 1980s reported: “The trains were loaded at the 'Sandwerke Biesern
pit' near Sermuth/Colditz, in the district of Leipzig. The loading was done from a ground-level
ramp with a Czech wheel loader of the type 'Vadroma'. This procedure was very
time-consuming and labour-intensive, as the sand was first driven to the loading track bylorry and dumped, then loaded onto the flat 4-axle goods wagons of the Res type with thehelp of the wheel loader.

The legendary“Sand train” DR

As far as I remember, there ran at least three sand trains per weekday in the 1980s,
some of them with steam locomotives. Steam locomotives Class 50.35 headed so for
Colditz twice a day. Shortly after Class 50 did arrive, the V 100 (Class 110) came with thesecond empty train and waited in Colditz until the Class 50 was back in Colditz with theloaded train. The route for the train to Glauchau always led along the Zwickauer Mulde; theother train ran with the Schlenz from Rochlitz via Narsdorf to Karl-Marx-Stadt.
Due to the time-consuming loading of the sand in Sermuth, the Deutsche Reichsbahn usedflat wagons of the type Res and occasionally also 'Emils', i.e. E-wagons, in the trains.”
The locomotive 50 3670-2, decorated with a commemorative plaque, was used laston the Muldentalbahn when it hauled the sand train Gag 56353. The highlight was thefarewell of locomotive 50 3670-2 and its crew at the Glauchau depot. The commemorativeplaque is attached to the package of the model as a printed metal plate for self-assembly.

were the most noticeable modifications. The locomotives proved particularly
useful on the ramps of the Thuringian Forest due to their pinpoint firing.

The steam locomotive class 50.40 of the Deutsche Reichsbahn of the GDR
was a further development of the goods train locomotive class 50 of the
DRG. When the locomotive was built, the DR paid particular attention tousing many identical assemblies as in the class 23.10 passenger train
steam locomotive. The DRG developed them in parallel to save costs in repair
and spare parts stock. The manufacturer VEB Lokomotivbau Karl Marx in
Babelsberg delivered 88 locomotives from 1956 to 1960, which were put
into service with the running numbers 50 4001 to 50 4088.

From 1928 to 1943, almost all German locomotive factories delivered class 86 to the Deutsche Reichsbahn
Gesellschaft (altogether 775 locomotives). The 1,000 hp locomotives were designed to reach a maximum
speed of 70-80 km/h; so the DR could use them in their primary application field for “branch lines”,
however, also for main and feeder lines. At the beginning of the 1950s, 164 class 86 locomotives were stillused in the GDR. In 1970, the Deutsche Reichsbahn still provided 162 locomotives with an EDP-compliant
running number but then scrapped them from 1973 on.

The “Queen of the mountains” with the number 95 027 was manufactured by Hannoversche Maschinenbau AG (HANOMAG) in 1923. With 1,620 hp, the class 95 steam locomotives were the most powerfultender locomotives ever procured by the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft. Until 1982, the 95 027
did heavy work at various depots on Germany's steepest mountain routes. From 1950 to 1969, it was
stationed in Blankenburg and ran on the Rübelandbahn up into the Harz mountains. In 1971 the DR
had it converted to main oil firing. In 1982 it was converted back to coal firing and integrated into the
DR's traditional locomotive vehicle fleet. From 1994 to 2008, the locomotive stood in the museum in
Arnstadt with boiler damage. After a thorough overhaul at the Meiningen steam locomotive works, it
started steaming again, hauling tourist trains on its steep main line in the Harz mountains since 2010.

Steam locomotive 150 Y 3

In 1943/44, the locomotive factory Société Alsacienne de Constructions
Mécaniques (SACM) in Graffenstaden near Strasbourg built over 100 class 52
locomotives. In 1945/46, the SNCF ordered even another additional 17 locomotives. There, class 52 was designated class 150 Y. A unique feature of
the locomotives was the shorter chimney, whose purpose was not to exceed
the French clearance gauge. The class 150 Y hauled both heavy goods
trains and passenger trains in the eastern region of the SNCF. They were in
operation there until the end of the 1950s.

When the first series locomotives were put into service in 1978, the class 1044 was themost powerful four-axle locomotive globally, with an hourly output of 5,400 kilowatts. The
ÖBB took the first step into thyristor technology by procuring ten locomotives from theSwedish Rc 2 class, designated as class 1043 in Austria. The positive experience gained
from this project and the increasingly demanding technical requirements prompted theAustrian locomotive industry to develop an entirely new high-performance electric traction
unit in thyristor technology at the beginning of the 1970s.

1044.01, ÖBB

SGP, responsible for the mechanical part, and the companies BBC (today ABB), Elinand Siemens for the electrical equipment, delivered two thyristor locomotives (1044.01 in
September 1974 and 1044.02 in February 1975) adapted to Austrian conditions to theÖBB for testing in the mid-1970s. The prototypes of these universally usable maximumcapacity locomotives with an output of 5,280 kW and a maximum allowed speed of
160 km/h were essentially persuasive during their test runs on the southern and western
railway lines between Vienna and Salzburg. In April 1976, the ÖBB placed the first serial
order.
However, there were numerous breakdowns and failures of the vehicles during thefirst years. These first “teething troubles” were overcome with a few technical modifications, particularly the conversion of the ventilation system. Externally, the locomotives from1044.71 onwards are distinguished by a higher roof edge attachment in various designs.
Due to its characteristic ventilation noise, the 1044 series soon became known by thenickname “Alpine vacuum cleaner”.
By 1995, 216 locomotives had entered service and were also used in cross-border
traffic, occasionally in northern Germany. From 2002, the 1044.2 series locomotives were
equipped with compatible multiple and push-pull train control. As a result, the vehicles
now designated as 1144 can also be used with the newer ÖBB series. Until 2013, thelocomotives of the first delivered series were also modified.
The exterior appearance was subject to several modifications over the years. 1044 001
to 126 were delivered with a blood orange locomotive body. The first locomotives had ablack frame and an ivory-coloured roof as well as a locomotive number plate “Taferl-44er”
on each front. Later the plates were removed. On the last locomotives, the ÖBB had theroof and frame painted with umber grey. In 1989, five newly built locomotives received theso-called “Chequerboard-Design”. After that, the Valousek design prevailed. The traffic-red
locomotive body is adorned with a light grey belt in the lower area and the front windows
are framed in umber grey.

When it came to traffic connections, Vorarlberg could only be reached from the rest of
the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy via the three mountain passes Arlberg, Hochtannberg or
the Silvretta. Especially in winter, these routes were often interrupted. Their passage wasarduous at any time of year.
In 1861 Vorarlberg, which had been governed from Innsbruck, was given the status ofcrown land in its own right and thus received its federal state parliament. However, theimperial royal governor’s office in Innsbruck remained responsible for the administration of
the crown land. Only after the collapse of the imperial and royal monarchy did Vorarlberg
secede and completely separated from Tyrol.
In the 1850s, two important railway lines were built in the surroundings of Bavaria andthe Swiss Rhine valley. An attempt to establish a railway line from Innsbruck to Bregenz did
not materialise because of the expected difficulties in building over the Arlberg. However, arailway in Vorarlberg from Bludenz to Lindau, with branch lines from Feldkirch to Buchs andfrom Lauterach to St. Margrethen, was pursued further, and the concession was grantedon August 17 1869.
The construction project of the Vorarlberg Railway was then secured, and the usual
negotiations about the route, location of the railway stations, and similar questions followed.
State treaties had to be concluded with Bavaria, the Principality of Liechtenstein and Switzerland regarding the route sections that crossed the respective foreign territories. The
necessary state treaties were undersigned in 1870, the same year the building permit
was granted.
On July 1 1872, the Bludenz - Bregenz railway line could officially start operating; thelines to Lindau and Buchs followed on October 24 1872 and the connection from Lauterach
to St. Margrethen finally on November 23 of the same year. Locomotive depots werebuilt at the Bludenz, Feldkirch and Lauterach stations. The headquarters of the company
management was in Feldkirch until nationalisation in 1884.
The name Carl Ganahl (1807 - 1889) is inseparably linked with the construction of the
Vorarlberg Railway. As political chairman of the Liberals and president of the Chamber ofCommerce, he campaigned tirelessly for the construction of the Vorarlberg Railway andthe Arlberg Railway to connect Vorarlberg to the rest of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy
network.
The first business results of the Vorarlberg Railway were a disaster so the economic
efficiency needed to be improved and a direct connection to the railway network of themonarchy was indispensable. So the Vorarlberg Railway was practically only the first realised
project of the continuously run Arlberg Railway, which opened in 1884.

When the Austro-Takt was introduced, the ÖBB started to use three express trains for fast
daily connections from Vienna to Switzerland in the early 1980s. The train “Zürichsee”
terminated in the City of Zurich, which gave it its name. The trains ran as “corridor trains” via
the “Deutsche Eck”, where there was no need to consider customs and border formalities.
To avoid changing the direction in Rosenheim, the "Rosenheimer Schleife" (Rosenheimloop) was built at the ÖBB's expense.
With the timetable change in May 1987, the new train category “EuroCity” (EC) was also
introduced at the Austrian Federal Railways. These were international train connections
that had to fulfil specific quality criteria. Besides punctuality, cleanliness, better service anda minimum average speed of 90 km/h, the ÖBB agreed to use air-conditioned coaches
in both classes.
The express train "Zürichsee" became the EC “Maria Theresia” in the course of thechangeover. This train was composed by the then-modern Eurofima coaches type UIC-Z
and consisted of a first and second class block and a dining coach with train telephone
in-between. The EC “Maria Theresia” also had a combined coach in its train formation.
This period also saw a new colour scheme for the ÖBB passenger coaches. For coacheswith “upscale comfor” applied: lower half of the wagon and decorative stripes above thewindows in blood orange as well as roof, window band, apron and bogies in umbra grey.
The special painting as an unique feature of the coaches is also considered in some ofour models.

was repaired in the main workshop in Linz. On the occasion of this repair,the locomotive received a new gearbox with helical gearing and different
motors, which allowed a maximum speed of 110 km/h. As a result, thelocomotive was listed in the register with the new operating number 1041

Since 26th October 2021, it has been possible thanks to the new “Klimaticket Ö” to travel
on different modes of transport with a single ticket. In this way, an increased number of people should
be animated to travel by train. Those who travel within Austria’s borders can obtain a ticket,
using which they can get around in all transport associations. This is above all beneficial forcommuters who have to take the bus and train to work.
This individual regional transport associations also offer regional alternatives; the so-called
regional Klimatickets. Such tickets are intended to contribute towards Austria’s compliance withthe “Paris climate objectives”, as public transport is the best. Most climate-friendly alternative toindividual motor traffic. In addition to the Klimaticket, Austrian public transport has been supported
through many other measures. These include the expansion of large transport links with investmentsof several billion euros, and the expansion of large railway stations into “mobility hubs”.
When the Klimaticket was introduced, a Railjet was promptly presented by the ÖBB as well as a
KISS multiple unit by the private WestBahn company in Klimaticket design as part of an initiative by theFederal Ministry for Climate Protection, the Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology
under the Minister for Climate Protection, Leonore Gewessler. These trains bear a clear message
across the borders, too, as the Railjet trains run, amongst other things, to Frankfurt am Main.
The design playfully reflects selected regions of Austria, as it depicts parts of Vienna or the
Tyrolean ski jump. The Railjet, more than 1,000 square metres of which have been elaborately
foil-decorated, will now remain on the rails in this design for approximately 4 years.

Although the railway had already entered Swiss territory in 1844, coming from the French town ofSaint-Louis in Basel, this year's anniversary is dedicated to the first inner-Swiss line from Zurich to
Baden, which began scheduled service on 9th of August 1847. Since a special “Baden” pastry could
also be consumed fresh from the oven in Zurich at the time, it was colloquially known as the “Spanish
Brötli Bahn”; this triggered off the start of the Swiss railway network development.
As a result, Switzerland saw a big rail construction boom. The main lines were built by about 1870.
The Nordostbahn (NOB), the Vereinigte Schweizerbahnen (VSB) and the Schweizerische Centralbahn (SCB) took responsibility for the project. The railways built by various companies in western
Switzerland were united under Jura-Simplon-Bahn (JS) by the turn of the century. The opening of theGotthard Railway (GB), which was crucial for transit traffic, in 1882 ultimately marked a milestoneof Swiss railway construction.
Between 1902 and 1909, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) came into being in the course of
the nationalisation of the five leading railway companies and some smaller Swiss private railways.
The quick and efficient electrification of the entire Swiss railway network, which began early andwas accelerated by the lack of coal during the two world wars, is considered unique in the world.
Other Swiss private railways, which have not been nationalised to this day, also made a significant
contribution to technical innovations in vehicle and track construction.

175 years ofrailways in Switzerland

The SBB marked several milestones in the field of Swiss locomotive construction in the early
20th century. The Ce 6/8 II electric locomotive, better known as the “Crocodile”, is probably thebest-known Swiss locomotive ever. Also worth mentioning, among others, is the C 5/6 series steam
locomotive, which was nicknamed the “Elephant”. The development of steam locomotives in Switzerland was successfully finished with these powerful yet beautifully shaped vehicles.
Switzerland has one of the densest public railway networks in the world. In 1982, the interval timetable was introduced throughout Switzerland. The motto was “A train every hour in every direction”.
The “Bahn 2000” concept, developed from 1987 onwards, provided additional trains on alreadydensely used lines. The key focus was on developing a dense system of junction stations between
which the travel times, including stops, were exactly one hour each. With the complex project “NeueEisenbahn-Alpentransversale” (NEAT), Switzerland continues to contribute to improving rail transit in
the north-south direction. The centerpieces of the project are several long base tunnels (Lötschberg,
Gotthard, Ceneri) which count to the longest railway tunnels in the world.
One hundred seventy-five years later, the Swiss railways celebrate the historic event with afull spectrum of entertainment and local happenings. It is by no means an anniversary of the SBB
alone - the private railways are also taking part in exhibitions, vehicle parades and special trips. It's
understood that ROCO will also “celebrate” this anniversary in an adequate manner.

from the ten powered axles that the double “team” has and does not refer to a particular locomotive type.
The SBB uses the Re 10/10 primarily to haul heavy goods trains on the Gotthard route. The bullish double

After the Ae 4/4 of the Bern-Lötschberg-Simplon Railway, which went into operation from 1944, had successfully proven itself over two decades, further outdated locomotives were due to be replaced at the beginning of
the 1960s. While the SBB aimed to purchase Re 4/4II with classic direct control and single-phase AC motors,
BLS opted for more modern technology with silicon rectifiers and shaft current motors. The locomotives,
initially classified as Ae 4/4II , and then as Re 4/4 after technical improvements, were built by SLM and BBC
and used for both passenger and goods transport on the BLS, GBS, SEZ and BN networks as well as theadjacent SBB routes.

From 2021, six connections with a travel time of 3.5 hours will be offered
daily between the main stations Zurich and Munich. The reason for this is
the gap in the electrification in the section of the Deutsche Bahn between
Geltendorf and Lindau. To draw attention to this, the SBB Personenverkehr
has provided four of its Re 421 engines with a dark blue advertising outfit.
The locomotives preferably circulate with freight trains.

When the former “Cisalpino” (CIS) coaches were transferred to the Swiss Federal Railways(SBB), their coach fleet became a little more colourful for some time. While the SBB was
still busy repainting their entire fleet of coaches around 2009, it was decided to use also
the silver CIS coaches in the trains; - this regularly led to particularly colourful and eyecatching train compositions.
One of those particularly “colourful” trains over a long time operating is the EuroCity
train pair 6/7. The train ran from Chur in Switzerland via Zurich central station and Basel
SBB to Mannheim, Dortmund, and Hamburg. On the German section of the route, theDeutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) took over with the train's traction. For this, the DB AG mostly
rented class 182 locomotives from MRCE. The trains have been a sought-after picture
motif for many years. The route through the particularly picturesque Middle Rhine Valley
led, among other places, from Koblenz to Bingen and provided not only the passenger withexceptional views.

The electric locomotives of the EuroSprinter family from Siemens are known in Germany as class 182. Witha power output of 6,400 kW, they reach a top speed of 230 km/h. From 2009 on, the DB Fernverkehr had ashortage of high-speed locomotives for the EuroCity traffic and solved the problem by leasing ES 64 U2 (class182) locomotives from the MRCE. After the timetable change in 2010, the EuroCity trains 6/7 used to be hauledby one of those locomotives.

To renew the fleet of the CSD, Skoda developed the 2nd generation of universal electric
locomotives from the second half of the 1970s, out of which derives the class S 499.2.
The letter “S” stands for alternating current. The two prototype locomotives were deliveredin 1984 and thoroughly tested. With an hourly power output of 3,060 kW, the locomotives
reached a top speed of 120 km/h. Ten serial locomotives with the new class designation
263 were delivered in 1988. The locomotives were used in express and goods train traffic.

In the 1980s, the CSD and the DR decided to procure dual-system locomotives to better
cope with the steadily growing traffic and the cross-border traffic operations on the BerlinDresden-Prague connection. The enhancement of the Decín-Prague connection to 160 km/h
maximum speed made it necessary to upgrade some locomotives. From 1994, six Czech
class 372 locomotives were adapted for faster international passenger traffic and operated
under the class designation 371 “Turbobastard”. The CD moved the converted machines
to the Prague depot.

in Berlin Hennigsdorf to the former Deutsche Reichsbahn for use infront of heavy goods trains at the Brenner Pass. The purchase of the newclass E 94 electric locomotives was only made possible by their classification
as war-essential capital goods. The DR ordered 285 heavy six-axle locomotives, but only 145 were delivered by the end of the war. The locomotive
was authorized to run at a maximum speed of 90 km/h; the hourly output

Over the coming years, selected models from the former engine shed
Freilassing are to be reproduced under the label “Edition Freilassing”.
The first locomotives, at the time still running under steam, entered
the locomotive shed with its 20 tracks in the year 1905. Around 20 years
later, the electric locomotive workshops were constructed, and further
buildings followed over the subsequent years. ROCO, too, has close connections
with the Bavarian city of Freilassing, as the company’s first sales office

The Deutsche Bundesbahn had 124 locomotives of the class E 94 (later class 194) in their vehicle fleet.
Like other designs from the past, the E 94 had a characteristic shape with two stems and therefore
was soon given the nickname “German Crocodile”. Technically, the developers and designers reliedon an axle-hung drive that was perfect for transporting heavy goods trains for which the “crocodiles”
were precisely built. The locomotive was approved for 90 km/h, the hourly power output was 3,240 kW
and the starting power output 3,900 kW. With this enormous power, combined with the unsprungaxle-hung drive, it is no wonder that the tracks began to vibrate when a class 194 locomotive arrived
with a heavy goods train.

The F 9/10 “Rheingold-Express”, which started operating again in May 1951 on the railway lines
between Hoek van Holland and Basel, had a portion working train of the same name “F 21/22
Dortmund – Innsbruck” integrated from the beginning. It was used for the exchange of throughcoaches, which took place in Cologne. From 1956, the southern route of the portion working
train was restricted to Munich. To better distinguish it from the main train, called “Rheingold”,
the F 21/22 was given the name “Rheinpfeil” in 1958.
After the “Rheingold” was equipped with new air-conditioned coaches in beige/cobalt blue
livery in 1962, it was evident to provide the “Rheinpfeil” with these comfortable coaches too,because of the close relationship of the two trains. Thus, in 1963, a repeat order was placed forsix open seating coaches Ap4üm, 12 compartment coaches Av4üm, three dining cars WR4üm
and two observation coaches AD4üm. The two observation coaches had the wide windows in
the observation dome and the lettering “Deutsche Bundesbahn” in raised letters underneath,in contrast to the long distance train “Rheingold” from 1962, which had already been launched
by ROCO earlier. ROCO has taken this into account, and the other coaches in the sets are true
to original models from the 1963 series.
While almost all of the coaches could be delivered by May 1963, the finalization of the locomotive
production E 10 1308 to 1312 planned for the “Rheinpfeil” was delayed until October 1963.
As was the case a year earlier with the “Rheingold”, five series locomotives (E 10 250 to 254)
were painted in beige/cobalt blue and temporarily received the existing “Henschel” bogies toachieve the top speed of 160 km/h of the final E 10.12. In contrast to the “Rheingold”, however,these locomotives kept their original running numbers. ROCO presented with the E 10 251, oneof the interim locomotives for a true to original train formation in the year of introduction 1963.
In 1965, both trains with their exclusive beige/cobalt blue colour scheme were elevated to therank “Trans-Europ-Express” because of the comfortable equipment they had. Later it resulted
in a repainting job into the TEE colours beige/purple, which was not started until autumn 1966
and finally completed in May 1967.

update
The era of high-speed rail transport at the Deutsche Bundesbahn began in the summer of 1991
with the ICE 1. A completely new railway system was introduced for the first time with newly
developed multiple units, unique high-speed lines, and a far-reaching timetable reform. The
multiple-unit concept with closed, wide coach transitions was groundbreaking for modern highspeed rail transport. The maximum speed of 280 km/h achieved in regular operation pairedwith a high comfort level revolutionised rail transport and secured essential market shares whencompeting with automobile and aeroplane transport.
The ICE 1 consists of two power heads and up to 14 middle coaches, altogether 12 coaches
for regular operation. With an overall length of up to 411 metres and about 800 seats, they belong
to the longest ICE units ever built to date. The until today, characteristic dining car is always placed
between the 1st and 2nd class wagon groups and makes the ICE 1 easily recognisable. Of the
60 units built in total, some are equipped with a second pantograph and a narrow collector shoefor use in Switzerland; they ensure direct connections from Hamburg and Berlin via Basel toInterlaken or Chur.
The entire ICE 1 fleet received a complex “redesign” starting in 2005, so the first ICE generation,with leather seats in 1st class, for example, meet the current ICE standards. A second modernisation programme has been underway since 2019 to extend the service life by a further ten years.
With an average mileage of over 500.000 kilometres per year, the ICE 1 still sets standards
in high-speed transport with its exceptional reliability.

updateThe parade line of the class 2D2 9100 was the “Ligne Impériale” - the imperial line whichconnected the French capital Paris with Lyon and Marseille on the Mediterranean coast. With a
top speed of 140 kilometres per hour and a tractive force of 900 tonnes, the locomotives were
perfect for hauling express trains. The SNCF ordered the first series of 35 locomotives in 1950.
The number of 2D2 9100 locomotives was to increase to 100 over the years.

locomotiveclass 2D2 9100, SNCF

Although its silhouette appeared relatively modern, the technology of this locomotive wasfrom the 1920s. Therefore, the locomotives were soon replaced by more modern class CC 7100
locomotives. Smaller and lighter motors replaced the Buchli motor, which was expensive andtricky to maintain and was used for the 2D2 9100 locomotives. Nevertheless, the class 2D29100 locomotives were still used until the 1980s.

The French State Railways (SNCF) have put the electric locomotives CC 6500
into operation in 1969. The locomotives were, at that time, considered
the most powerful locomotives of French railway history. In their first yearsof operation, the locomotives were used because they reached a top speedof 200 km/h and, as a consequence, hauled famous express trains such as
the “Mistral” or the “Capitole”. However, as the locomotives had an enormous
power output, their field of operation changed over time, and the SNCF usedthem then to haul heavy goods trains.

The first train that was named “Mont Cenis” belonged to the famous TEE (Trans-EuropExpress) group, founded in 1957, and connected Milan and Turin with Lyon through thetunnel of the “Mont Cenis” mountain massif. The French railways were responsible for
operating the train until 1960, when they finally transferred it to the FS. The FS used, after
the TEE network was disbanded, the Breda diesel railcars “TEE 200” until 1972. However,the “Mont Cenis” remained in service and operated together with the SNCF type RGP(Rame Grand Parcours) railcars until 1978, when the Eurofima coaches, specially designed
to ensure connections between important European cities, were introduced.
That meant that the “Mont Cenis” was converted to a locomotive-hauled train. The train's
standard composition consisted of two FS-Eurofima first class coaches and three SNCFCorail second class coaches. It was usually hauled by the E.656 from the locomotive depot
Turin to Modane. In Modane, where the train was taken over by a CC 6500 “Maurienne”.
The restructuring of Eurocity services on the “Frejus line” to France in 1996, using TGVs
between Paris and Milan and ETR 460 “Pendolino” between Turin and Lyon, meant theend of the “Mont Cenis”.

The “Nederlandse Spoorwegen” (NS) received 58 four-axle electric locomotives of the class 1600,
based on the French electric locomotive BB 7200. In the year 1981, when they were introduced,
they were the most powerful locos in the rolling stock of the NS. The engines for the Netherlands direct-current network with 1.5 kV were designed for a top speed of up to 180 km/h; thepermitted top speed in daily service was 140 km/h. They had an output of 4,540 kW on therails. All the locomotives were decorated with the coats of arms of cities within the Netherlands.

Electric

locomotiveclass 1600, NS

As a modernised version of the class 1600, 81 engines of the class 1700 were procured
from 1991 to 1994. They distinguish themselves through the increased deployment of electronic components, as well as the updated train control system and a different braking system.
When the Netherlands freight transport merged with the German Railion Group, the DB AG
received access to some of the NS class 1600 electric locomotives. However, these locomotives
retained their old numbers, but the engines remaining with the NS were changed to the class1800 series whilst retaining the locomotive number.
The NS also had a true world record holder in its fleet; the 1607: In the year 1989, this locomotive hauled a train made up of approximately 60 passenger coaches, thus transporting thelongest passenger train in the world. Today, several locomotives are operated by private railway
companies. The 1632 locomotive is used by the HSL, painted in a conspicuous chessboard design.
With the 9908, Locon also operates a locomotive of the former NS fleet. Both locomotives aremainly deployed in freight transport or set before special trains.

Diesel locomotive 751 375-7

Class 751 is a diesel-electric universal locomotive. Between 1966 and1971, 230 locomotives were built for the CSD at the CKD factory in Prague.
The locomotive reached a top speed of 100 km/h. The 6-cylinder motorwith a turbocharger produced 1,500 hp.
Their working range extended from international express trains to passenger trains and heavy goods trains to “collectors” (shunting trains).
They were also to be found in the border stations of the neighbouring
countries. The large projections under the front windows quickly earned
her the nickname “Bardotka”, loosely related to Brigitte Bardot, theFrench actress.

The class 215 locomotive was first a diesel locomotive of the DB. Lateron, the Deutsche Bahn AG used it in the moderate passenger and goods
traffic. The series was bought as a variant of the vehicle-family V 160 atshort sight and then was equipped with heating steam generators. The

WHAT IF...?
The next winter is bound to come! Since the beginning of the railway era, it has been necessary to clear
the tracks in case of snowfall or drifts. The spectrum of railway service vehicles ranges from simple
snow ploughs to large snow ploughs and high-performance snow blowers.From the 1960s onwards,
it became necessary for the Deutsche Bundesbahn to replace the outdated, still steam-driven snow
blowers. Various small heavy-duty vehicles with Beilhack diesel snow blower aggregates were tested in theAlps, in the Allgäu region and abroad. One disadvantage of these vehicles was the necessity of an additional
locomotive for the feed.
To make snow clearance even more efficient, a self-propelled high-performance snow blower was developed.
With this, the DB could handle snow heights of up to 3 metres. This way the DB would have optimally been
prepared to cope with any weather capriciousness. After extensive test runs, however, serial delivery to theDeutsche Bundesbahn was delayed until the early 1990s.

To convert some series of the prevalent V-160 family, the DB ordered powerful
AVCO Lycoming T53-L13 turbines from the former Klöckner-HumboldtDeutz works. From 1970, the turbines were mounted in the locomotives
then designated as class 210. The locomotives with the running numbers
210 001-008 were put into service quickly on their intended regular railroutes. Their daily service included the express train “TEE Bavaria” andother heavy express trains running between the Bavarian capital Munichand Lindau.

Diesel locomotive class 115
The class 115 is a variant model of the class 110. The class 110 was
developed as a universal locomotive for passenger and goods train services
on main and branch lines of the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the GDR. To enable
the locomotives to haul heavier trains, the DR installed in some of the locomotives more powerful motors with an output of 1,100 kW (1,500 hp). The
locomotives were then re-designated as class 115. Somewhat later, the DR
combined them with the 114 class. The class designation 115 was kept forplanned new locomotives.

As the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) intended to accelerate the tractionchange in its vehicle fleet, it bought from 1966 to 1975 from the Soviet
Union a total of 378 locomotives of the class V 200 (later designatedas class 120). Since the locomotives were delivered from factory without
train heating, they were mainly used in goods trains. Later, silencers were
mounted to reduce the noise level of the motors. Because of the loudmotor noise, the locomotive became soon known under the name “Taigatrommel”.

The class V 180 locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn was the largest
diesel class ever built in the GDR. It was initially built in a four-axle version
with two two-axle bogies - later, there were also 6-axle variants. The six-axle
version with a low axle load of 15.6 t is still considered a masterpiece ofthe engineers involved. The low axle load allows for universal use, so thelocomotive can also operate on branch lines. In addition to that, it also has
the license to haul trains over steep railway sections. The resulting potential
application area is unique among large German diesel locomotives.

The diesel locomotive class T 669, later known as class 770, owes its nickname on the one hand to the Russian class designation “TschME-3”, which
is very close in sound to the Czech word for bumblebee “Cmelák”, and on
the other hand to its humming sound when starting up, which also hassimilarities in sound to a bumblebee - at least from a distance. With its
1,400 hp, it proved itself in light and heavy shunting service. They were also
indispensable for the Slovakian State Railways for a long time.

The Italian State Railways (FS) bought 9 Diesel multiple units of the series
ALn 442/448 from the Italian manufacturer Breda for the use in high-quality
international passenger trains on diesel lines. Until 1972, they mainly
were used a a replacement unit for locomotive-hauled TEE trains. Foodand drinks were prepared in an extra on-board kitchen and meals wereserved directly to the seat due to the lack of a restaurant area. After having
operated as TEE, the trains were rebuilt, with the kitchen being removed
and seats fitted in place of these, so the designation was also changed to
ALn 448/460. These were used as express trains, especially in southern
Italy. The ALn were particularly popular with passengers because of theirhigh level of comfort and short travel times (the multiple units could travel
140 km/h).

Trains that met thesecriteria were given the designation “EuroCity”. The EC 24 “Erasmus”, which had already beenrunning as InterCity between Innsbruck and Amsterdam since 1980, is a prime example.
It left the Tyrolean capital, hooked up to an ÖBB class 1044 locomotive, which finally carried
it to Munich. After changing direction in Munich and in Frankfurt/M, it continued its route ineach case with a DB class 103 locomotive, which hauled it all the way along the Rhine to
Emmerich. The train was shortened to six coaches (two 1st class coaches, one dining car
and three 2nd class coaches) and thus adapted to the passenger volume. From Emmerich,a Dutch locomotive, usually one of the then brand new class 1600, took over and brought
the EuroCity to Amsterdam in the evening. The EC “Erasmus” stopped operating in
June 1991 because on this German/Dutch connection, only DB short trains started runningin the North of Cologne besides two pairs of trains with SBB seating coaches.
The EC “Erasmus” coaches, which are being transferred to the Netherlands, are prototypically designed as so-called multi-voltage coaches, which can in the EuroCity sense, also
be used internationally in the German-speaking countries. The open seating coach Apmz
121.1 is equipped with a telephone booth with a coin-operated self-dialling telephone
and a wide roof aerial installed in 1982. Avmz 111.1 runs to Amsterdam, while Avmz
111.2 can only travel to Emmerich; however, it still has the round pot aerial from the time of
the train secretariats. A particular highlight is the dining car WRmh 132.1 from the former
TEE “Rheingold” from 1983, which was hired especially for the use with the EuroCity
Start in 1987: Only the orange Rheingold stripe was removed from two dining cars, while
the lettering “Restaurant” remained orange, making them captivating “splashes of colour”
for more than four years, especially in EC trains to the Netherlands. In the second classgroup, one of the two Bm 235s has an IC courier service compartment, the other, like
about a tenth of these coaches, has different class numbers and pictograms arranged
lower than usual. The three 2nd class open seating coaches belong to the slightly different
types Bpmz 291.2 (single-voltage), Bpmz 291.3 (multi-voltage) and Bpmbz 291.5 (multivoltage, handicapped-accessible).

A world without containers and swap bodies on rail and road is no longer imaginable today. With
these transport units, the continuous transport of goods from the consignor to the consignee ismanageable. It is not the actual goods reloaded but the containers that change the means oftransportation in the transport chain - between truck, rail and ship.
Container handling on flat wagons is most common when it comes to combined transport (CT).
CT would not work without the so-called (double) pocket wagons, on which both containers
and trailers can be loaded. The vehicles are indispensable! Transhipment usually takes placevertically (with cranes or reach stackers) at a terminal. For this purpose, junction stations withloading facilities are set up at the ports and in the hinterland.
The “Rolling Highway”, also known as piggyback transport, established itself as anothertype of transport. Truck units for longer distances travel independently on special low-floor
carrier wagons. The truck drivers spend their time during the travel in the accompanying
couchettes.
Combined transport is the best way to bring goods traffic back onto the railways and equallyprovide innovative solutions for energy-efficient, environmentally and climate-friendly mobilityof goods.

For the transport of dusty and granulated goods, the CSD procured four-axle wagons withfour upright containers and compressed air discharge at the beginning of the 3rd Five-Year
Plan. For decades, this wagon became synonymous with the transport of dusty goods byrail in Czechoslovakia.

The first dust wagon, type Raj 495, was put into service in the early 1960s. The second
type, Raj 451.0, is based on the operational experience with Raj 495. Typical for the designis the cranked frame similar to that of four-axle heavy-duty flat wagons.
The third type, Raj 451.1, followed between 1975 to 1988 and was equal to the priormodel 451.0 except for the higher and straight frame. The standard transport system withcompressed air for dusty goods enables direct loading and unloading between rail androad. Further advantages of the silo wagon are its high operational flexibility and economic
efficiency. The Raj 451.1 wagons were delivered as private wagons to specific factories.
The primary goods transported are cement, limestone powder and lime. Also, soda,
gypsum stone, fly ash, carbon black, flour, etc. After 2000, some wagons were rebuilt andhad other bogie types (type Y25) fitted to meet international transport conditions.

Silo

wagon

Raj, CSDThe CSD often painted the Raj wagons in various colours for different reasons: owners,
goods transported, etc.. That is why the wagons travelled with red-brown or green bodies
and with containers in predominantly yellow colour. Due to difficulties in obtaining paintfor revisions, especially chrome oxide yellow, appeared wagons with containers in various
colours (from cream to orange to shades of green) mainly in the 1970s. Since the 1990s,
the colour scheme has become even more colourful. Since private companies own thewagons, they are painted according to the advertising colours of their owners. Since thefall of the Berlin Wall, the wagons have also been in use in neighbouring countries. You canalso find the wagons today in trains of various other railway companies; additionally to thetrains of the CD Cargo and the ZSSK Cargo.

From the first railway days, the construction of passenger coaches with wooden superstructures mounted on a load-bearing chassis was the norm. The ÖBB neglected themaintenance of the wooden superstructures of many wagons already during the Great
Depression. After the Second World War and the following years, the building of new passenger coaches fell far short of demand due to other important tasks and a lack of funds.

The war damage to the narrow-gauge wagons was minor compared to the standardgauge wagons. The base frames, even of the oldest wagons, were still in surprisingly goodcondition. This situation prompted the Austrian Federal Railways to build so-called “ribbed
wagons” “Spantenwagen” in the main workshop in St. Pölten. The “Spanten” elements –these were load-bearing iron frames – formed the main frame. A sheet metal skin coveredit and made it serve as wagon body.
By 1960, a total of 41 two-axle wagons had been converted. Some of the wagons were
equipped with toilet and wagon heating. In the beginning, the ÖBB fitted the wagons withwooden slatted benches and full-drop windows but later installed upholstered seats andsingle-hung windows (half windows). The ÖBB used the ribbed wagons on some narrowgauge railways until the 1990s and today, they form the basis of the rolling stock of many
nostalgia and museum railways.

Diesel locomotive 2095 004-4
The locomotives of the class 2095, procured from 1958 onwards, formed
the backbone of the ÖBB on the diesel-operated narrow-gauge lines for
decades. The ÖBB used them in passenger and freight traffic, especiallywhen transporting rollbocks and roll wagons.
The 2095s were used on the narrow-gauge lines of the Ybbstalbahn, theBregenzerwaldbahn, the Krimmlerbahn, the Waldviertelbahn and on theso-called “Krumpe”. The “Krumpe” “Crook” connected Ober-Grafendorf with
Gresten and is closed down today.
