"Crocodiles". The Swiss mountain locomotives that pulled heavy freight trains over the Gotthard grades were known as "Crocodiles". The design (articulated hoods, extended shape) and the color green was the source of the name. When traversing combinations of turnouts and "S" curves, these locomotives "snaked" through the curves like a reptile. "Six-axle full gauge locomotive, only for large curves, true reproduction of the 'Crocodile locomotive' …", this was the way the reproduction of the latest Swiss locomotive was presented in the 1933/34 Märklin catalog. The design and the pulling power of the original locomotive impressed people so much at that time that it became a synonym for progress and power. A mystique that henceforth lingered on in the history of Märklin. This legendary piece of motive power was in all of the scales offered by Märklin. First in 1 Gauge and 0 Gauge, then H0 and even in Z Gauge Mini Club. It was the top product offered everywhere in the assortment and thus became the unofficial "heraldic animal" of Märklin. The color green dominated over the longest period of its service life on the Gotthard grades and left the original color brown almost forgotten. Märklin did not bring out a "Crocodile" in brown on the market until 1984 in a limited quantity in 1 Gauge as an offering for the 125 anniversary of the company. There never was a white "Crocodile" in reality. Despite that, a large Märklin dealer in New York ordered single samples of large 0 Gauge locomotives in special paint schemes. He chose the color white, which is totally atypical in the prototype. It can't be denied that the locomotives in this fantasy paint scheme had a special effect on observers. Despite this, there was only the one order for some unknown reason. These locomotives were thereby one-off pieces seen by only a few people. Amazingly, they became very well known in collector circles. Perhaps, because who could imagine a "Crocodile", the Swiss mountain locomotive, which was typically green, in a white paint scheme?

All of the Crocodile sets are consecutively numbered for a worldwide edition of 1859 units. A certificate that is also consecutively numbered is proof of the authenticity of this exclusive set for the 150th anniversary of the firm Märklin. The locomotives come in a prestigious collector case.

 

 

Märklin H0: 36600 Electric Locomotive.

ToToTrains price: $128.90/$144.89

Prototype: German Railroad, Inc. (DB AG) class 185.2 general-purpose locomotive. Used for the freight railroad Railion Deutschland/DB Logistics. Dual system locomotive built by Bombardier as a regular production locomotive from the TRAXX program.

Model: The locomotive is constructed of metal with many cast-on details. The locomotive has a digital decoder and a special motor. 4 axles powered through cardan shafts. Traction tires. The triple headlights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally. The headlights are maintenance-free LEDs. 2 pantographs that can be raised and lowered (they are not wired to take power from catenary). Length over the buffers 21.7 cm / 8-1/2".

Features: Headlight(s) and Direct control.

Highlights:
New tooling.
Locomotive constructed of metal.
Detailed, affordable beginner's model.

The Class 185.2 and Class 485.2. The locomotive classes 185.2 for the DB AG and the 485.2 for the BLS originated in Bombardier's TRAXX (Transnational Railway Applications with eXtreme fleXibility) family. These locomotives are used for medium heavy passenger and freight domestic service as well as for cross-border operations. New regulations forced Bombardier to make changes to the locomotives from 2005 on: these locomotives have been equipped with a locomotive body better able to sustain crashes, which makes them look brawnier and more powerful compared to the predecessor classes 185.1 and 485.1. Other changes involve the electric power converter system, which does not affect the looks of the locomotives. Other railroads are also making use of these innovative locomotives, since individual wishes and requirements are relatively easy to satisfy with innovative "package" solutions.

The high performance class 1012 electric locomotive was specially designed for the Austrian railroad network. The mountainous terrain with sharp curves and steep grades but also long straight routes such as in the Inn Valley or on the West Railroad / Westbahn pose great challenges in the design of locomotives for the Austrian Federal Railways. The class 1012 locomotive was originally intended for use as an express locomotive with a maximum speed of 230 km/h / 144 mph and was supposed to replace the class 1044. It was used for several years in regular scheduled service as general-purpose motive power with an output of 6.4 megawatts / 8,582 horsepower for express passenger and freight service on the point of trains for the "Rollende Landstrasse" / "Rolling Road" on the Innsbruck - Brenner line. Technically, the class 1012 was designed to haul trains of 660 metric tons on .5% grades at 220 km/h / 138 mph and of 600 metric tons on 2.8% grades at 100 km/h / 63 mph. It was designed to be able to haul express passenger trains on flat terrain and heavy freight trains in mountainous territory and with double-heading. The locomotive strongly resembled the SBB's class 460 in the design of its superstructure with the side walls of fluted sheet steel and the engineer's cab elements of fiberglass components. The mechanical part of the locomotive came from Simmering-Graz-Pauker, and the electric part was delivered by ELIN, Siemens, and ABB. The top management of the Austrian Federal Railways changed while the first three locomotives were being built, and new regulations were effected for announcing requests to tender bids in the EU region. Initially, the ÖBB no longer wanted to take delivery of the locomotives as a result, but in the end an agreement was reached and the locomotives were accepted by the ÖBB in 1997. These locomotives were stationed in Innsbruck during their entire service life. The class 1016/1116 "Taurus" locomotives soon represented a more economical alternative, and the class 1012 locomotives with their attractive shape remained a splinter class.

This model is available with 2 road numbers: Item no. 37308 is 1012.002-0, item no. 37309 is 1012.003-8.

This model can be found in a DC version in the Trix H0 assortment under item no. 22600.

The Re 10/10 – Double Pack on the Gotthard. Transporting freight over the Gotthard route has always represented on of the greatest challenges to the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). One of the most remarkable solutions in recent years has been the introduction of the Re 10/10 double unit motive power consist. This is not an immense locomotive but the use of a Re 6/6 and a Re 4/4 II or Re 4/4 III in pairs. Such a tandem motive power combination transports the maximum train load of 1,300 metric tons over the 2.6k% grades on the Gotthard route. An additional pusher locomotive must be used for trains up to 1,600 metric tons, since otherwise the coupling hooks on the train's cars would no longer stand the load. The two locomotives are controlled from the engineer's cab at the front by means of multiple unit control systems. The main area of use for this power package is the Gotthard route, but it is also employed on other steeply graded routes in the Swiss Confederation.

The Re 6/6 – 3 Trucks on the Gotthard. The beginning of the Seventies marked the end of the legendary class Ae 6/6 on the Gotthard route. The Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) therefore had the firms SLM Winterthur, BBC Baden, and SAAS Genève develop a successor design: the class Re 6/6. The difficult conditions on the Gotthard required a locomotive with 6 powered axles. In order to keep wear to a minimum, the designers for the project decided against two trucks such as for the Ae 6/6. Instead, they went with three trucks, with the middle one having a great deal of side play. The trucks are linked with each other with elastic transverse couplings to guarantee optimum operation on curves. Four prototypes of the Re 6/6 were initially built, of which two were equipped with divided locomotive bodies that move vertically thus adapting to conditions in an optimal manner. Test runs showed that this was not necessary for the regular production locomotive and all 85 regular units built from 1975 to 1980 were equipped with a one piece locomotive body. The engineer's cabs on the Re 6/6 borrowed heavily from the design for the Re 4/4 II as did the electrical equipment for the transformers, of which the Re 6/6 has two. These locomotives are 19,310 mm / 63 feet 4-3/16 inches long, weigh 120 metric tons, and have a maximum speed of 140 km/h / 87 mph; their performance is 7,850 kilowatts / 10,527 horsepower. One particular technical feature is the locomotives' acceleration under optimal conditions: from 0 to 100 km/h / 63 mph in 5.8 seconds. The Re 6/6 locomotives have had to undergo several paint variations and overhauls. Thirty locomotives were equipped with remote radio control starting in 2000; these units are used with the designation Ref 6/6. The UIC designation for the class Re 6/6 is the class 620, which can be seen with increasing frequency on the locomotives. The 88 units still in service (one was lost to an accident in 1990) all belong to the SBB Cargo business area and haul heavy freight trains to all corners of Switzerland, also over the Gotthard route with a Re 4/4 II or Re 4/4 III in tandem motive power consists. The class Re 6/6 locomotives were even an alternative to a Re 4/4 II double motive power combination in heavy passenger service. After the modern class 460 was mainly assigned to passenger service, the impressive Re 6/6 with its three trucks once again dominates freight service on the Gotthard.

The E 10 – 50 Years and Still Not Tired. After the founding of the German Federal Railroad, the most important goal for the new firm was to renew the worn out motive power roster. An essential objective was to replace economically expensive steam motive power with diesel and electric locomotives. For that reason the German Federal Railroad's committee responsible for motive power decided in 1950 on a standardization program that comprised 4 different types with essentially the same components. After intensive testing with 5 pre-production class E 10.0 locomotives, the class E 10.1 to E 10.3 was selected for express train service. A total of 379 units were to be delivered to the German Federal Railroad and were built starting in 1956 in several production runs by the firms Krauss-Maffei, Krupp, Henschel-Werke (mechanical part) as well as SSW (Siemens-Schuckert-Werke), AEG, and BBC (electrical part). A welded box-style body with simple, later double lamps, and vent grills rested on welded trucks of box-style construction with truck center pins. Starting with road number E 10 288, the elegant “pant's crease” locomotive body of the E 10.12 was also used with the standard E 10, which was then designated as the class E 10.3. The locomotives were equipped with indirect working Knorr design air brakes; for switching they were equipped with direct working auxiliary brakes and also with electric resistance brakes coupled to the air brakes. The E 10 was also equipped with the rubber ring spring propulsion proven on the pre-production locomotives and four type WB 372 14-pole traction motors, which were used on later locomotive classes such as the class 111 and class 151. The transformers were the first regular production units in Germany to have high voltage control and were cooled with oil. A relay system with 28 speed steps was connected to the transformers. The E 10 was also equipped with a form of automatic control, i.e. the locomotive engineer selected the speed step, and the relay system accelerated up to the desired setting. The engineer's cabs also had mechanical and electrical safety equipment that was adapted to new standards over the years; the engineer could also now sit down in the cab to run the train. These locomotives weighed 85 metric tons, measured 16,490 mm / 54 feet 1-3/16" in length, had a maximum speed of 140 km/h / 87 mph, and had a continuous performance rating of 3,700 kilowatts / 4,961.78 horsepower. Over the course of many years of use the external appearance of the locomotives changed due to numerous rebuilding and modernization programs as well as because of new paint schemes, the designation of the class (from 1968 on as the class 110), and the area of use. In the first years the E 10 was the backbone of the express train service until faster, more powerful locomotives such as the class E 03/103 and then the class 101 supplanted them. Currently, the majority of the remaining units are used in regional service.

The E 40 – Backbone of Freight Service. The class E 40/140 also came from the new procurement program of the Fifties. From a technical point of view the class E 40 is a class E 10.1 modified for freight service. It had the same locomotive body, almost the same mechanical and electrical systems, but it differed in several features from its faster siblings. The class E 40 had no electric brakes, a different gear ratio, which meant a lower top speed, and a different roof with fewer ventilation grills. The classic chrome oxide green was chosen for the paint scheme; the elegant blue was kept only for express locomotives. The class E 40, from 1968 on designated as the class 140, was designed for medium heavy freight service, but it wandered into other types of service, particularly when the top speed was raised from 100 km/h / 63 mph to 110 km/h / 69 mph. It could be seen pulling “Silberlinge” commuter cars and during the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich in S-Bahn service too. The main area of use remained and still is freight service. Like all other locomotives, the class E 40/140 underwent modernization programs, which changed the appearance of the locomotives markedly in addition to different paint schemes. Thirty one of the class E 40 locomotives were specially equipped with direct current resistance brakes for use on steep grades such as the Höllentalbahn or Valley of Hell Railroad. They were designated as the class E 40.11 and later starting in 1968 as the class 139. Later, the remaining class 139 locomotives were assembled together in Munich, where they were used along with the class 140 locomotives in service up to the Brenner Pass. The class E 40/140, with its sub-variations, was the locomotive type built in the largest quantities in the standard design program of the new German Federal Railroad. A total of 879 units were mainly responsible for medium heavy freight service over a period of decades. Except for a few locomotives, they are in the process of being retired or are already completely retired.

The Class 150 – Pusher Service in the Mittelgebirge Region. The class 150 was without a doubt the most powerful locomotive from the standard design locomotive program of the Fifties. For decades it was not only the backbone of heavy freight service on the German Federal Railroad, it was also indispensable in pusher service in the Spessart region and on the Geislingen Grade, where class 194 locomotives had been used for this purpose until 1987. The use of a train with an uncoupled pusher locomotive between Geislingen and Amstetten is limited to a speed of 60 km/h / 37 mph; the normal maximum speed on the grade is 70 km/h / 43 mph. The DB AG's intensive new procurement policy was supposed to remove the remaining units of the class 150 from service and thereby also the pusher locomotives by the end of the Nineties, but their retirement was delayed until 2003 due to their reliability. The class 150 was replaced by the class 151 on the Geislingen Grade. The latter class is used primarily for freight trains over the grade; in passenger service the new, powerful electric locomotives usually do not require pusher service.

This model can be found in a DC version in the Trix H0 assortment under item no. 22154.

The Class 1216 - Third Generation Alpine Bull. In the wake of the new political order in Europe, the transportation routes once again are going straight through the Alpine republic of Austria into the center of the continent. The Austrian Federal Railways could not and have not wanted to miss this connection and have prescribed themselves and their motive power roster a radical rejuvenating cure. In addition to a new design for the infrastructure, at present one of the largest and architecturally most spectacular train stations in Europe is being built, the locomotives and rolling stock have either been upgraded or newly purchased. The best known and most beautiful new development in terms of its shape is the "Taurus" locomotive family built by Siemens, the classes 1016, 1116, and 1216. The rollout of the 3rd generation of the class 1216 Alpine Bull took place on March 31, 2005 at the Siemens plant in Munich. A total of 50 locomotives were ordered by the ÖBB and are to be used mainly in cross-border passenger and freight service. This four-system, three-phase current, general-purpose locomotive was derived largely from the Siemens ES 64 U4, designated on the German Railroad, Inc. as the class 189. Externally, the Taurus family genes are very much handed down. In terms of design, there have been several changes however such as four doors, a fairing for the costly roof equipment, LED lighting, and the upper front light now placed under the windshield. This four-motor locomotive is something over 19 meters / 62 feet 4-1/6 inches long, reaches a maximum speed of 230 km/h / 144 mph and has an axle load of 21.8 metric tons. Even before its time as the ÖBB bull, road no. 1216 050 broke the world record for conventional locomotives set by the SNCF's road no. BB 9004 in 1955 at 331 km/h / 207 mph. This was done on September 2, 2006 on the Nürnberg-Ingolstadt new construction route between Kinding and Allersberg. Road no. 1216 050 ran, without extensive preparation to the track, catenary, or the locomotive, at a speed of 344 km/h / 215 mph and even reached 357 km/h / 223 mph during a second test run. At the end of 2007 it was transferred like the other 49 class 1216 locomotives to the ÖBB and it will serve primarily in runs from Austria to Slovenia and Italy. The 1216 will come to Germany and Hungary as part of the new ÖBB product "Railjet" and will link Vienna with Munich and Budapest on a regular schedule. The fast, powerful bulls of the 3rd generation cut a good figure in the immense, futuristic halls of the new Vienna Main Station and out on the line.
