LGB 21430 Class Ge 4/4 III Electric Locomotive with sound
This is a model of the RhB class Ge 4/4 III electric locomotive in the
normal RhB red with large lettering. The paint scheme and lettering are
prototypical for Era VI. All 4 wheel sets driven by two powerful Bühler
motors. The locomotive has an mfx/DCC decoder with many light and sound
functions. The pantographs are powered by servomotors and can be
controlled digitally. Length over the buffers 65 cm / 25-5/8".
The class Ge 4/4 III electric locomotives are the latest locomotives on
the RhB and they can be seen pulling all types of trains. With a
performance of 2,400 kilowatts / 3,217 horsepower and a maximum speed of
100 km/h / 63 mph, they meet all the requirements present for use on a
mountain railroad. In recent years, the RhB began to modernize these
locomotives delivered starting in the mid-Nineties. The electronics were
updated and thereby brought up to the current standard and the
locomotives were equipped with modern LED headlights. The horns
originally installed have been replaced by a compressed air whistle.
Updated in this way, these locomotives are good for service for another
20 to 25 years.
