Product Info
Built from 1963 to 1970 by the Ateliers du Nord de la France (ANF), this first series of 151 modern railcars (for the time) was registered in section X 4301 to 4451. Each railcar consisted of a motor 330 kW power and a trailer with driver's cabin. The Poyaud diesel engine drove a mechanical transmission with an 8-speed gearbox.
All the machines in this series can be coupled together, in multiple units of up to 3 elements, and with the X 4500 and X 4900 with three boxes. Maximum speed: 120 km/h, or 38 cm/second in H0 scale.
Their generic name is “EAD” for Self-propelled Diesel Element (“Elément Automoteur Diesel” in French). They were also nicknamed "Caravelle".
