Prototype: The Ae 3/6? came into operation between 1921 and 1929 and were in regular service for over 70 years. Initially used for the high-quality express train transport on the east-west axis, the machines also proved their worth in regional, postal and goods train services. They were found in all three parts of the country and on all railway lines - with the Saint Gotthard route being rather an exception. Only at the very beginning, the SBB used the Ae 3/6? on mountain lines, afterward, only in exceptional cases.

This presentation, although nicely filmed, is all a bit non-factual for me. After watching the vid, I still don’t know what scale model we‘re looking at. Assuming the model is N scale, the quality of the workmanship from Roco would appear to be second to none.

Philip Roco has not made N-Scale in over 40 years, sorry we assumed everyone knew that. Roco did however acquire Fleishmann about 15 years ago. Today Fleischmann is all N-Scale so this model might come out in N-Scale under the Fleischmann brand.
