Modellers of Epoch 5 will almost certainly need the Taurus range. Whether the OBB versions, the visiting DB versions, or the many Siemens Dispoloks which cross the borders of Austria from the West, or the Hungarian examples of MAV and GySEV, these pages try to list what is available. (Check the last updated date at the foot of the page)

You may find better pictures on the makers' own pages, these are from our members' collections.

We have split the listings by Scale

  HO - N - Z

Numbering

In order to identify which locos are allowed in differing areas, Dispolok locos are numbered in different ranges. An example appears below

ES64 U2 902 delivered July 2000 in Dispolok silver and yellow with plain sides. Renumbered to 1116 902-6 in August 2001 to identify it on ÖBB lines. Number changed on loco. Taken out of service in May 2003. Traction software upgraded. Returned to traffic in August 2003, renumbered as ES64U2 031. Renumbered as a DBAG private loco 182 531-4. This number applied August 2003 to the loco, to the left of the ES number, and in smaller font. New ES number applied to nose.
