Roco 42021 — Set C ROCO-LINE

Description

Roco 42021 — Gleisset C ROCO-LINE mit Bettung polarisiert

The Roco Line track system with bedding replicates the modern permanent way (Oberbau) standards utilized by major European railway administrations, including the Deutsche Bahn (DB) and Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB). Designed to reflect contemporary civil engineering practices from Era IV through Era VI, the system utilizes a 2.1mm rail profile, corresponding to Code 83. This height accurately captures the visual proportions of heavy-duty main-line tracks capable of supporting high-speed passenger services and heavy freight corridors across Central Europe. The integrated bedding simulates the ballast shoulder of high-quality stone ballast, providing both acoustic insulation and a prototypical appearance for permanent or modular layout designs.

This H0 scale (1:87) extension set C is engineered to expand Roco Line configurations A and B, facilitating the construction of complex station throats and passing sidings. The set comprises precision-molded nickel silver rails for optimal conductivity, including two G1 straight tracks, one G1/2 straight, one R10 curve, and two R2 curves. Technical highlights include a 15-degree right-hand turnout (Wr15) and a curved turnout (BWr 2/3), both featuring polarized frogs (Herzstückpolarisierung) to ensure uninterrupted power pickup for locomotives with short wheelbases. The set also includes a manual uncoupler track, adhering to NEM 310 standards for wheelset compatibility and offering a click-and-play assembly mechanism through its durable, elastic bedding material.
