New for 2025: The Rh 242 "Plecháč" electric locomotive is a model of the well-known Czech Railways class 242 locomotive in H0 scale (1:87). It belongs to the V era and is characterized by its precise workmanship, high level of detail, and very good running characteristics. On the roof, you will find a pair of metal current collectors, complemented by a detailed interior and precisely fitted front windows, enhancing the model's highly realistic appearance. The model is designed for DC operation and features a PluX22 / NEM 658 interface, making it very easy to add a digital or sound decoder. It is supplied without sound, but is fully prepared for the additional installation of a sound decoder.

The S499.02 series locomotives were developed in the mid-1970s as a further development of the S499.0 type. Compared to the previous series, the large windows on the sides were replaced by a wide fan belt, which significantly improved the cooling of the transformer, while the body itself remained very similar in design to the E 469.3 DC locomotives. Between 1975 and 1981, a total of 86 of these machines were put into service by ČSD, where they were used for both freight and passenger transport. During the 1980s, some locomotives underwent modernization and were fitted with single-arm pantographs. In 1988, the entire series was renumbered to the new 242 series.

This model is the ideal choice for train enthusiasts of all ages who are looking for a high-quality, realistic electric locomotive for their model railway set.
