Kato N 3103-1 Ge 6/6-I Electric Locomotive, Rhaetian Railway "Rhaetian Crocodile" #414

The Ge6/6-I, affectionately known as the "Rhaetian Crocodile," is a six-axle, rod-driven box-style electric locomotive that made its debut in 1921 with the electrification of the iconic Albula Line. For decades, it faithfully hauled both freight and passenger trains, and remarkably, more than 100 years later, two units are still preserved in full working order. These legendary locomotives aren ’t just for show —they regularly operate on seasonal and event servic

Over 100 years since its debut, the beloved and historic electric locomotive "Rhaetian Crocodile" Ge6/6-I —still hugely popular on the Rhaetian Railway —is finally making its debut in N scale! KATO faithfully recreates its compact yet mechanically intricate design using their latest technology. Look forward to pairing it with the scheduled August 2025 releases like the 3101-7 Alps Locomotive Ge4/4-III 643 and the 10-2026/2027 Glacier Express of the Alps for an even more immersive experience!
