Product description

Model: The locomotive has an mfx+ digital decoder and extensive light and sound functions. 2 controlled, high-efficiency propulsion units, each with a flywheel, 1 motor in each locomotive half. Both outer drive wheel sets powered in each group of drive wheels. 2 Traction tires. Both locomotive halves are permanently coupled together using couplings with guide mechanisms. Dual headlights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally. There is also a third headlight mounted above as an oncoming train light and it can be controlled separately at the front in the direction of travel. There is cab lighting and engine room lighting in each locomotive that can be controlled separately in digital operation. Maintenance-free LEDs are used for the lighting. The pantograph on each locomotive half can be raised and lowered separately in digital operation. The highly detailed construction is constructed mostly of metal and includes many separately applied individual parts. There are close couplers with close coupler mechanisms and NEM pockets at both ends of the locomotive. The buffer height adheres to the NEM.

The minimum radius for operation is 360 mm / 14-3/16". Brake hoses and prototype coupler imitations are included for mounting on the locomotive.

Length over the buffers 24.1 cm / 9-1/2".

The class E 95 electric locomotive is being produced in a one-time series in 2025 exclusively for Insider members.

Charlie's Tips

A dump car set to go with this locomotive with 10 type OOt Oldenburg high-capacity dump cars as new tooling is being offered exclusively for Insider members in 2025 under item number Marklin 46226 along with a type Pwg Pr 14 freight train baggage car under item number Marklin 46987, available to order at Ajckids.. The unit coal train can be extended with another 10 high-capacity dump cars under Trix item number 24266 by replacing the wheelsets with the required AC wheelsets.

This model can be found in a DC version in the Trix H0 assortment under item number 25950.

They were designed for the many heavy coal trains, up to 2,200 metric tons, which rolled every day from the Silesian mountain area in the direction of Dresden and Berlin. Their quaint, almost terrifying appearance was based among other things on the two high hoods that contained the oil-cooled main transformer and the contactor control circuits. Moreover, the class E 95 units were actually double locomotives to allow installation of the necessary six driving axles. In operation these power houses turned in marvelous performance. At that time, they reached the highest running performance of all Silesian freight locomotives. When demand for coal went down in the course of the global economic crisis, these 70 km/h / 44 mph locomotives were also used to pull passenger trains. Road number E 95 02 has been preserved in the maintenance facility. Perhaps in the not too distant future you can even experience this one-time technical masterful achievement live. It will certainly not be pulling coal trains. That is reserved – in the small scale – for the new, excellent Märklin model.
