The machines of the Swiss type Ce 6/8 probably are among the most famous locomotives in the world. The locomotives of the second series were put into service on the Gotthard route between 1920 and 1921. Lasting for decades, traffic in goods on this important route to Italy was made prossible by the "Crocodile".
Our model was equipped with electric driven pantographs. They can be driven up and down at the touch of a button. All models were painted gray/green.
This series was ordered by Fulgurex.
