A touch of history:
In 1953, Deutsche Bundesbahn ordered new Pacific locomotives for express train service. In 1957, Essen-based Krupp supplied 2 examples of type 2'C1 h3 (length 26,503 mm) under serial number 10. These railway machines could reach a speed of 140 km/h with a power output of 1,839 kW.
Roco manufacturer presentation:
Austrian-born model railway brand Roco was founded in 1960 by Heinz Rössler. This manufacturer specialises in the design of products derived from model railways.
Roco produces all types of railway equipment (wagons, carriages, locomotives) from different eras (I, II, III, IV, V or even VI). In general, the manufacturer designs products in various scales such as: HO: 1/87th; N: 1/160th and TT: 1/120th.
The brand is characterised by their eye for detail, and the robustness of their products, which are designed from metallic materials. Their products are as close to the real thing as possible, and for some (the Digitales Sound models) offer very well-reproduced sound effects.
The brand also offers railway accessories (spare parts, tyres, couplers, etc.) and digital modules (analogue controller, digital control unit, digital remote control, etc.).
