Schneebergbahn and Schafbergbahn: The two famous cog railway lines of Austria, still in operation!
We build our models of cog railway locomotives, coaches, cars, rack rail, switches and typical accessories true to original and finely detailed. All models are ready-to run !
FERRO-TRAIN cog railway locomotives operate on 12 V DC. As the original, they move by rack and pinion drive on the rack rail. The high gear reduction of 1:256 ensures traction true to prototype.
A FERRO-TRAIN cog railway locomotive can climb grades up to 250 OO/O (1:4) and negotiated 300 mm radius curves. As the prototype on the Schneeberg, the loco can push 2 coaches up those grades. The usual incline, however, is 170 OO/O to 250 OO/O.
