The BLS Be 6/8 is a heavy loco for freight trains, built by SA Ernesto Breda in Milan together with Sécheron in Geneva. In the middle of the fifties, the characteristic cabs were modified, so the four locos of this type looked very similar to the Ae 6/8.
We built our model only in the original version with angular cabs. In contrast to the series of the Ae 6/8, the hand railings of the Be 6/8 are chromium plated.
This series was ordered by Fulgurex.
