Electric loco set double traction Re 10/10 SBB Digital Sound

Model: HO gauge DC. Swiss Federal Railways electric locomotive double traction Re 10/10. Anniversary version of the year 1982 „100 years Gotthard Railway“ consisting of Re 6/6 11626 and Re 4/4 11323 with front emblem and raised locomotive numbers. Both locomotives powered. Prototype: The double traction of Re 4/4 and Re 6/6 is called Re 10/10 for simplicity’s sake. This name is derived from the ten powered axles that the double unit has and accordingly does not refer to a separate locomotive type. The Re 10/10 are used by the SBB almost exclusively in front of heavy goods trains on the Gotthard route. The powerful double manages the prescribed maximum load of 1,400 tonnes on the train hook at 80 kilometres per hour on a gradient of 26 per mille.
