Product Features and Details
The fire brigade on rails! With vehicles in the typical fire brigade red, train locomotive Gmeinder 15/18 with indicator light (without function) and a suitable bogie trailer with load-carrying syringe, water tank, sands bags and hose reel. Length of locomotive: 35 mm. Length of car: 60 mm.
Diesel locomotive Gmeinder 15/18: The locomotive locomotive corresponds to a type which was built in this construction principle from the middle of the twenties by the Gmeinder in Baden. The locomotive was produced in high numbers until the fifties, and is still partly used today due to its robustness. The model of the field locomotive is called "Gmeinder 15/18" according to its horsepower (15 hp of continuous power / 18 hp of short-term power) and is driven by a diesel engine with a three-speed gearbox and chain drive with a maximum speed of 12 km / h. The track width is 600 mm.
The locomotive models are as in the example as variants with open and closed cab. The small locomotives are powered by a 3 volt micro-precision engine with gear reduction for model slow driving and strong traction. Thanks to a built-in magnet, the contact pressure of the locomotive is increased to the metal submerged narrow track track, thus guaranteeing a reliable current consumption from the rails and slow-running slow travel. The locomotives have a coupling pin for the realistic train formation on the rear of the cab as well as a magnetic clutch for operation with lorries and wagons from the Busch-pit railway range. As in the original, the smallest track radii (up to 100 mm) can be driven with the locomotive locomotive. Due to the compact design and the low space requirement, it can also be used very well for the diorama design and supplementation of existing model railway systems.
