to represent these

Click the pictures for more information and progress.

Class 362 Bo-Bo-Bo electric "Bellows"
So called due to the connection in the centre of the articulated locomotive.

These locos were built by Ansaldo in Italy, based on the class E.646. I have just obtained a Rivarossi model for conversion - which will be very extensive!

Class 363 C-C "Brigitte"
Based on the French CC6500, which will be altered and detailed then repainted into red livery.

These powerful locomotives are used on freight and passenger trains, and have two gear ratios to suit the different uses.
Class 642 Bo-Bo "Ðjurica"
Based on the French BB63400, a model of which is being altered and detailed.

These locomotives are used on local freights and shunting and station pilot duties.

Class 664 Co-Co diesel "Reagan"
These are American export model locomotives, and are widely known as Reagans.

They were assembled in Croatia, who also have some of them. No model is available, but I hope to be able to use various parts from US models, plus scratchbuilding.


FS E655 Bo-Bo-Bo
Italian E.655 locomotives make irregular visits to Ljubljana Zalog yard with freight. Originally bought to provide a chassis for the 362, but as the wheelbase was not correct, it will be used on freights from Italy.
Class 541 Bo-Bo electric "Taurus"
These multi-voltage locomotives are the newest on the system and are identical to the OBB 1216.

Roco have now released this model in SZ livery.
Class 644 A1A-A1A "Spanka"
These locomotives are American EMD's and were assembled in Spain.

A model is possible using parts from various US models plus some scratchbuilding.
