El16.2210 in Finse with train from Bergen to Oslo
1993-07-19
|
The three colour schemes that were available from Roco.
|
The Norwegian El16 is based on the Swedish Rc4. For many years they
ran the Express-trains from Oslo to Bergen and Trondheim. The first 10 (of the 17 built)
came in the brown NSB colours (nowadays called "gammel design"). NSB Gods, later CargoNet, gave
them a grey/black colour scheme.
This page shows the El16 models in my collection (all made by Roco).

Another version in the brown colours. This version is an error though. Only the 2201-2210 were
delivered in brown so the 2211 has never been brown.
