I'm happy to announce a new model in our assortment: Zmodell 99196 - ES64 F4 (BR 189) in Lokomotion "Black Zebra" paint scheme.
Model is based on Marklin 88195 locomotive, and is a extensive re-paint with a number of improvements over original model. Here are some highlights:
- Locomotive has prototypically correct paint scheme that is made using pad printing (for cabin sides) and full color UV-cured printing technology (for sides);
- Printed details on metal locomotive chassis (this small but important thing that Marklin once imlemented in their 88192 SBB Cargo SBB Re 474, but refused to do in all later models);
- Correctly painted pantographs;
- Metal etched and painted brake disks that we made on our own too;
- Model is packed in the new specially designed packaging box.
About digital version: since the model is based on the new Marklin's chassis with coreless motor, currently there is no dedicated decoder offered for this model (we are waiting for solution from Velmo). Currently it is possible to install Doehler & Haass DH05C or similar decoder to this model.
Regards,
Alex
