Details

Explore the remarkable Škoda 47E, one of Europe’s most striking electric locomotives, originally delivered to the Czechoslovakian state railway in multiple variants as the S 489 and S 499. Renowned for their distinctive design and robust performance, these locomotives continue to captivate railway enthusiasts across the continent.

The Škoda 47E is instantly recognisable thanks to its rounded driver’s cabs fitted with large panoramic windows, giving the locomotive a uniquely attractive appearance while also improving visibility. Another exceptional feature is its body, constructed entirely from fibreglass-reinforced plastic, demonstrating advanced engineering for its era and contributing to a lightweight yet durable structure.

  • Iconic Cab Design: Features smoothly rounded driver’s cabs with expansive windows that define its elegant and unmistakable silhouette.
  • Innovative Construction: Built with a body made entirely of fibreglass-reinforced plastic, offering strength, reduced weight and long-term durability.
  • Extensive Service History: The S 499 variant was supplied to CSD starting in 1968, with a total of 145 units delivered, underscoring its success and widespread adoption.
  • European Rail Heritage: Stands as a symbol of Central European locomotive design, reflecting decades of engineering excellence from Škoda.
  • Perfect for Modelling Enthusiasts: Captures the authentic look and character of a locomotive that played a pivotal role in Czechoslovakia’s railway operations.

This highly detailed model celebrates the unique design and technical achievements of the Škoda 47E, making it an outstanding addition for any collector seeking true European railway heritage.
