Powerful engines, accurate drive units and the harmonious interaction of the engine and transmission give our locomotives exactly the same running properties as the originals. They have excellent slow running properties and realistic top speeds. Technical refinements such as sound generators – and smoke generators in steam locomotives – round off the railway experience.
By way of example the exploded view shows of how many individual parts the Freight Car Om21 (gauge H0) is made up.
Excellent materials and fine craftsmanship guarantee the firstrate quality of BRAWA models. Most of the locomotives are made of die-cast zinc, which offers advantages relating to weight and robustness. The lamp holders are made entirely of brass or etched steel plate to maximise their durability. The light bulbs also have an extremely long life expectancy.
Every new product that we develop reflects our commitment to creating a perfect replica. That‘s why our model development projects always start out with meticulous research. We scour museums and private archives, measure and photograph the details of the originals and study construction plans and photographs. The product development phase doesn‘t commence until we‘ve done all that. First of all, construction plans are created in CAD and compared with the original.
Then, die-casting or injection moulding tools are produced, as well as dummies and prototypes. These tools are subjected to comprehensive test series to assess their technical properties in Remshalden. Parallel to this, the tools are further improved to ensure optimum running properties and the perfect reproduction of visual details. Then, series production commences, followed by the hand-crafting of the details.
BRAWA promises “Dedication to Detail“, and it keeps this promise by delivering models which are perfect replicas of the original‘s appearance and technology. That‘s genuine added value that provides many years of enjoyment. BRAWA‘s models are a cut above the rest thanks to the Remshalden facility‘s outstanding engineering expertise, high production quality, optimum materials and high-quality parts, not to mention the many fascinating details. What‘s more, we continually optimise new and existing products and we produce exclusive one-off series in limited editions.
BRAWA locomotives and cars operate perfectly on all systems and tracks of all makes. The range of models includes locomotives, cars and accessories for H0, TT, N and Z gauge tracks. All of BRAWA‘s HO gauge locomotives are available for direct and alternating current.
