Product Features and Details
Prototype: This newly developed ballast renewal machine from Plasser & Theurer is equipped with two drive options – electric and diesel-electric (hybrid) – by means of a 600 kW diesel engine. Driving engines and hydraulics are always driven electrically. The electric drive allows for a low-maintenance, as well as silent and low-emission operation (CO2-reduced). The trendsetting design is mainly function-orientated and keyed to enhance work safety. The model is to a high degree a copy of the prototype in terms
of both function and design.
Model Innovation by Viessmann:
Operation optional in drive mode or working mode travelling forward at ca. 3 km/h with tamping unit moving vertically and horizontally. Pantograph motor-driven, several light functions. Digital decoder with original sound for electric resp. diesel engine for DCC, MM and analogue mode DC, compatible with RailCom. Excellently synchronized tamping unit with the drive motors and the sound. Premium two-part model with zinc diecasting chassis and two synchronized drive motors ensuring a dynamic yet sensitive train operation, supported by integral current memories. With coupler pockets acc. NEM 362 and attached system coupling. Dimensions: Lob 39,3 x W 3,9 x H (without/with pantograph) 5,1/7,6 cm.
