And now a Vectron Diesel from Spur 1 Austria
by Friedhelm Weidelich
The Wehrmacht locomotive WR 360, later V 36 or 236, has variants from the DRG, DB, DR, ÖBB, SNCF, SNCB, FS, and CSD, as well as the V 36 005 from the VGH (now owned by the DEV) and Belgian CCB works locomotives. For the first time in 1:32 scale, V 36.4 with a longer wheelbase are being offered. The pre-order price is €1,890.
Siemens Vectron
The diesel-electric Vectron DE, class 247.9 or 1247, was not necessarily a bestseller for Siemens, but is particularly interesting for gauge 1 model railroaders because it does not require overhead wires. Five German and Austrian versions are planned.
The dual-mode Vectron with only one pantograph and a diesel engine will also be produced in a light version, which has a weaker engine in the original. These are the class 248 and 249. All Vectron models are available from €2,990.
The versions of the class 159 and Rh 2159 in Austria have now also been finalized. The impressive six-axle locomotive carries an extremely large number of cables, tubes, components, and aggregates. For this reason, the pre-order price starts at €3,490.
MaK/Vossloh G 1000 BB/ MaK G 800 BB
A total of 15 variants from different countries have now been specified for this relatively modern diesel locomotive. It can be pre-ordered from €2,840.
Spur 1 Austria has taken on a huge number of new products and variants. Now we can look forward to seeing how the delivery dates develop.
