Electric Locomotive Class CC 7100 SNCF
This electric locomotive, born in the
'50s from studies of the SNCF, was one of the most popular and versatile
locomotives of the French Railways. Several locos were also built for foreign
railways.
In March 1955 one such locomotive (CC 7107) together with another type (BB
9004) set the world speed record on rails achieving 331 km/h. A copy of the
plaque commemorating this achievement is included in the model package box.
Produced by Rivarossi from 1991 until 1994
