Marklin is pretty much the only manufacturer that makes an all-metal zinc diecast shell. This model is a diecast chassis but the shell if plastic. The plastic is very high quality and the detail is remarkable.
J'ai eu la toute première HO par METROPOLITAN celle ci Avec les marquages jaunes du BLS en laiton très cher en 1977 Ou 78 Je l'aî revendue...je ne connais pas cette marque Mais le modele est très beau ...Quel est son prix et quîla vend
That's actually a beautiful locomotive.. Clearly a challenge to Crocodile locomotive
Beautiful Loco. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome Jeremy
There was a Small production model by Renfer (MOREP) in DC and AC. The shell was die cast with brass parts
Yes I mentioned that in the video but those old brass models were pretty crude.

Beautiful model. Just one question. Is the shell diecast or plastic?

The Breda Ae 6/8 had a Secheron Spring Drive and not the Buechli drive of the SBB Ae 3/6I and Ae 4/7
I messed up thanks for your input
