This very nice HO gauge locomotive by Roco is 43566.3 a SNCF BB25100 electric locomotive in green livery. It has running number BB-25151


The BB 25100 is a class of electric locomotives in service with the French railways SNCF, built by Materiel de Traction Electrique (MTE) in 1967. They are dual voltage locomotives working off both 1500 V DC and 25 kV 50 Hz AC with a top speed of 130 km/h (81 mph). The class was designed by André Jacquemin.


Originally allocated to Chalindrey, they were used on the Dijon to Metz route until replaced by the BB 22200. Subsequently, they operated express passenger and freight services around Dijon and also in the northeast of France. The class was eventually withdrawn by 2006.


4 of the class were sold in 2007 to GFR - Grup Feroviar Român, Bucharest of Romania (25109 and 25123 to 25125).


The loco is in very good condition as you can see in the pictures, I have not tested it but I can see no reason why it would not run, so it it is sold in untested condition, but a complete external visual inspection has shown no reason why this loco would not run and the overall condition is very good. Indeed the inspection suggested that this loco has not been run much at all. It comes complete with its box. The box is in good if slightly shelf worn condition. The paperwork included in the box is as I received it from the original collection but it may not be correct for the loco.


Overall this is a really nice scale locomotive and would look fantastic on a layout.


Do please have a look at my other listings, I typically have various HO and OO locos on offer as well as an extensive range of imported N gauge locos and other items.


Note: I do recommend all locos are cleaned & serviced, as they have some age to them even if the quality looks at the highest level (fairly standard advice for all locos!).
