Märklin 038350 H0 E-Loc Ae 3/5 SBB

AE 3/5 - The small SécheronIt is a name that immediately spreads a particular aura. However, the "little Sécheron" is not a painting of Picasso, but rather the almost loving name for a Swiss locomotive, which was supposed to herald a new age on rails among the Swiss. Electric traction throughout the country was the direction of the march after the First World War. Single-frame constructions with single-axle drive were the magic formula for the electrical future on the Swiss Federal Railways SBB Built in 1922, the Type AE 3/5 looked unusually compact with its three driving axles and two running axles, but achieved an impressive 1800 horsepower at the time. And the minimalist design exuded an unusual elegance. The AE 3/5 soon became its nickname, in line with the Geneva-based company Sécheron, which supplied the electrical part. AE 3/5 10217 has been preserved as a working jewel in the Olten depot. This beautiful machine served as a model for the beautiful new Märklin model of this type of locomotive, which also spreads a really original flair in the scale of 1:87.
