This first quarter has seen 3 major surprise announcements and the latest is an exciting 1 Gauge Model of the famous KPEV EG 507 Electric Locomotive.
The first electric locomotives of the Royal Prussian Railway Administration (KPEV) were once the pride of Prussia on rails and represented milestones in locomotive engineering at the time. These rugged prototypes were designed with uncompromising efficiency for special duties using proven principles from steam loco engineering. However, they used clean, invisible energy without any steam, soot, or coal.
The class EG 507 and 508 freight locos built in 1913 and 1914 epitomize the Prussian virtues of the KPEV. During the pioneering era of electric train haulage, the company left nothing to chance and therefore ordered test locos for very specific purposes from a variety of companies. Most of them resembled curious giants from another world, also due to their unusual sound. However, like many other locomotive types from the early days of electric train haulage, they laid the foundation for the modern railroads of today.
4 Versions are being offered; Era 1 KPEV in Photo Gray; Era 1 KPEV in Prussian Green Livery; Era 2 DRG Brown Livery and finally, a Technological Edition in exposed Brass and metals.
For 1 Gauge Collectors & Enthusiasts, these models have never been offered before. Reserve one or more of these Iconic Locomotives. Deliveries are expected in late April or early May.
