In the years 1924 - 26 the Ateliers Sécheron in Geneva built the Ae 3/6 III, which are are closely related to the 1922 built class Ae 3/5 locomotives.
The extension of the locomotive body and its support on a bogie should run their inadequate properties are improved, but succeeded only in part. It was built in eleven machines and operations recently freight or passenger trains. In the forties the brown-black color was replaced by a green paint scheme with light gray chassis. The transition plate and one cab door on each side were removed prior to repainting.
In the seventies, the locomotives were retired. Only 10264 survived and was classified as a serviceable locomotive in the fleet of SBB Historic. The engine from the depot Lausanne pulls special historic trains and is used at railway historical events.
As an anniversary model "10 years ZettZeit" this Swiss special is realized in cooperation with FR-Model . The third SBB Ae 3/6 series is realized in brown original color with the number 10264, as the locomotive of the SBB Historic that is still in use today. A powerful Maxon motor with flywheel, together with the high weight guarantees dynamic driving characteristics and adequate traction. For the first time in a metal model of FR will have a constant illumination.
For various reasons, the originally intended delivery date can not be met. I will report here on upcoming progress.
April 2011: Now we are are doing test rides of the chassis with mounted cab.
June 2011: Tests with Ligjt and Parts of the new chassis.
September 2011: First finished pre-production model makes some testing rounds at the Goeppingen trainshow.
Last modifications of the shell and the colour need to be done in the upcoming weeks.
