I love crocodiles in fact I am from India and we also had crocodile locomotives in th 1930s built by bbc and slm.I have a strong attachment towards these beasts no matter what country they are from.The credit goes to Switzerland the country that started it all.
The loco is equipped with SBS 39 pantographs, so the pans should both be up in both directions. SBS 39s were single wiper pans, and locos needed 2 wipers on the wire at all times to reduce arcing. So, the pans switching with direction is interesting, but incorrect. Hopefully, they can be set to both raise and lower together, disregarding travel direction.
Video starts with an introduction as the E 95 .... But then it turns into the E94 ( which is correct ) anyway ESU stands out with their locomotives in every way Lear’s of which is the ability to run on DC or AC layouts not to mention loads of sound and special functions . Am glad I got one and it is worth the price .
Be aware of the very complicate technic inside. For replace an engine you need half a day. It is very tricky to assemble the gear. The soldering points are very small and delicate, and many small parts are to bring in a perfect position, otherwise the housing cannot be proper fix.
Exuisite model , just like BR 94 , which I have in my collection . BUT does it have english instructions ? I wrote to ESU to send me the english instructions for BR 94 , and they did not have them . ( ? ) So , I will not have this one unless they print them in english as well . Sorry
Too bad you will miss out on this model and so many more great models from other manufacturers. Please understand because the English markets are very small compared to the German markets it is a matter of economics. The cost does not justify the expense to create English or French or Spanish instructions. So long you have a list of all your functions and the basic instructions on you how to maintain the model you can easily type the German text in google translator and print the English instructions. Guys like me we never look at instructions anyway so it was never even a consideration but that's just me. Any way don't miss out on great models over a small 10-page instruction manual.
Hi! I'm working to a personal project to modify an E94 Era II ROCO locomotive from analog to DCC. I've designed a complete new PCB with 8xAUX powered outputs, added lights in the cabin, top beam and ESU LokSound 5. I saw that the loco presented here has automatic raise/lower the pantographs. Could you please tell me what servos is using and what kind of pantographs is using to be activated by the decoder? I'm looking for 1 month for such pantographs / servos but I couldn't find anything to fit inside the loco. Thank you.
@@countryflash3600 Thanks. Do you know how small are they? Or where I can find them to buy as spare parts? I'm interested to try to adapt them inside the my Loco. I found some 1.9g servos. but still I think they are big. This is my project finished: ruclips.net/video/D4XTaOyUG3c/видео.html
@@countryflash3600 Thank you so much for this info! I was looking for this information for a long time, but of course I was looking for it in english :).
You mean electric locomotive series E 94 or BR 194, can't have both in the description, E stands for the description at the beginning which stands for ELEKTROLOKOMOTIVE, and BR stands for BAU REIHE which means type, model or series. And definitely this is not BR 95 as you mention at the beginning of the movie
@@ReynauldsEuroImportsI was really impressed with how you pronounced "Deutsche Bundesbahn"! Do you also speak German? I would have guessed that because of the flawless pronunciation.
This model do also have two motors. I prefer one motor with double brass wheel instead. The model is however very nice locomotive. Pantograph should be separate digital function instead!
Just got my hands on one E94. Beautiful locomotive no doubt about it.

Hi. I am from India too and have seen Crocodiles in action between Bombay and Kalyan. You can see them at VT railway museum and Delhi Railway Museum..
The extra footage was really nice, I hope to see more like it (when it's possible).
Great stuff! I like the real life footage too. Thanks Reynaulds. i
I know it is quite off topic but do anyone know of a good place to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Miles Clark I watch on flixzone. You can find it by googling :)

It's very good and it's cool
Hallo! Ihr habt Recht wenn ihr sagt das er keine besseren Modelle als die von ESU gibt! Good Luck!

Is there any of ESU left for me?

There are 2 micro electric motors ;-)

Thanks for pointing out the errors we know about them but had no time to correct.
@@ReynauldsEuroImports Keep up the good work!!! The occasional mishap is nothing to worry about.

I think the DB was formed in 1949.
Yes you might be right.

Hi, is possible to buy it?
Not years after announcement. ESU Locomotives are very popular and quickly sold out
This model do also have two motors. I prefer one motor with double brass wheel instead. The model is however very nice locomotive. Pantograph should be separate digital function instead!
Two motors makes the model much stronger. You can turn off the automatic pantograph function so you can control them independently.
The brass wheels are called "flywheels"

Australia and Austria are two different countries.
I was really wondering why Australia should use German locomotives!
