Model train

Lubrication-free enjoyment

Model train enthusiasts will enjoy this Rhätische Railway locomotive for a long time to come. By using iglidur® plain bearings at the wheel axles under the locomotive and in the power train, there is no need to oil the gears. This previously always required disassembly of the locomotive, which was built on a scale of 1:45. Another alternative would have been ball bearings, but that was prohibitively expensive.
