- Reynaulds.com is sharing Modelleisenbahn GmbHs video on how Roco designs and build a new locomotive. Have you ever wondered how a model train gets built? The planning, design, research, tooling, and manufacturing that goes into a model is simply remarkable. Have a look at how a Roco model goes from the drawing table to the shelves of hobby shops around the globe. Modelleisenbahn Gmbh owners of Roco makes some of the best models in the world and this video shows all the work they do to make all our dreams of model railroading a reality. Thank Modelleisenbahn Gmbh for all your hard work and great quality models.

Loco prices are going up, but seeing Roco still make their stuff in Europe with such attention to detail, the price is more than justified.
No the dream is alive that beautiful factory is in Arad Romania, if you ever want to visit let us know, Roco offers factory tours.
Ok I found a video when Arad opened, check it out everyone click here czcams.com/video/bitx3a8pxJg/video.html
i have only roco models i love them because they are robust and made in europe , jouef were made in france unfortunately bought by hornby and all the stuff is made in china i hope to work in a train model factory , i collect corail coaches and cc 72000 cc 6500 locomotives
@@ReynauldsEuroImports Does Roco make british trains? For analogue?
They were very nice factory in ho chi Minh City, Vietnam.
What an amazing process! Almost as involved and as complex as building a watch! No wonder ROCO trains are so incredibly realist in their appearance!
A great piece of interesting entertainment ! There's no substitute for craft . Machines and lasers have a great influence , but the Human touch is wonderful . Love and care are worth a lot . Well done Roco.
Well, some things still have to be done by hand. No matter where they’re made, that’s still true. But because of computers and CAD/CAM, models today are vastly better than models from more than 30-40 years ago. Those were simple and primitive, unless they cost thousands.
Never would have guessed that so much industrial machinery went into creating the shells and under frames!
AWESOME! how people working together can create such scale beauty... 🧡
I don't model European trains so I have no Roco models but I sure would support the effort if they did some US models, looks like fine craftsmanship
But they do what do you think powers your athearn genesis models a Roco motor look at one next time
Absolutely incredible the amount of tooling required to produce this model....the quality and attention to detail is amazing...thanks for sharing this video.....hope to see more of these....xx
Wow, that sure is a lot of very intense planning, work and assembly, amazing process.
INCREDIBLE DETAIL, I will appreciate items even more!
That ending stunk! I wanted to see a few of them running around on somebody's nice layout---ya gotta redo that ending!
Wasatch Range Railway - And don't de-focus the gorgeous blonde...
@@daveogarf Ya! Tell me about it!
@nvdirtbiker I played with dirt bikes too!
That's somebody's nice layout. Possessive apostrophe!
@@SpeccyMan You're absolutely correct! I screwed that one up! Where would I go on the net to improve my English skills?
I have many Roco, they are very high quality and have run without fault for many years :)
Wonderful and enlightening video showing such intense planning and such attention to detail. The whole video was excellent showing the skill and final assembly of the trains, inspiring.
I myself don't have the time enough to build a model locomotive with the intricate details i saw in this video, very impressive indeed, it explains the justified cost. When you think about, it would probably take months to build one and not look or run as a factory made peace. 👍
Fantastic video! Congratulations!
I did know that a lot of work was done to produce a model, with all the scanning,jigs, tools, dies ect. I have had my eyes opened to the complexity and time consuming task they undertake and will see my Roco locos, running stock and the Z21 in a completely different light. Excellent video thanks
Amazing, congratulations Roco.
I had no idea these lil machines were still handmade. I figured for sure this process would all be automated by now. Amazing video showing the detail & quality craftsmanship that goes into each miniature that is produced!
Great video & high quality product!
That is way cool. Never knew there was that much work going into these. I guess now I dont mind paying the price on some of the trains. Mad skill. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Finally a well produced video that actually show the process from design to manufacturing.
Very nice video. This motivates me to buy some of these models.
That’s a awesome job to have building model trains
Great layout loads of detail.well done
Very, very interesting and good video. Thanks!!
So much care and attention conveyed effectively, nice vid 👍🏼
thank you for this very interesting video
My god this is so cool, I had absolutely no idea what went in to making these miniature pieces of functional art!
An excellent video. I have a number of Roco items on my model train layout. ♡ T.E.N.
Excellent!
Wow, great video !
beautiful work
Impressionante! Magnifico sistema. Do início ao fim,
Parabéns!
Awesome video. Thanks so much for the insight in this incredibly interesting stuff!! Never thought this much was involved in creating a model train.
Remarkable video. Very interesting.
great video, really shows just what goes into making a model locomotive, i wish instead of the music though you had someone explaining the processes, I realize the video would have had to be longer but it would have been worth it I think.
Absolutely fabulous
Excellent work, I was impressed to see Roco is still making their own motors - Most companies have just buy them from some other manufacturer.
Very very interesting. So much work !!! So many details. This was an excellent video. It makes you appreciate the amazing models we have today. Very Well done. 3 thumbs up !!!
nice video too much effort to make this loco incredible love it
Amazing!
Great video! I’ve been a great fan of Roco since 40 years, and I will always be! I wish I’d see more steam locomotives! The technology can be compared to luxuy watch making. Very amazing indeed!
They really make beautiful models and none many of them are coming with advanced Henning and Leo Lab sound libraries. Roco models are high quality and super detailed models.
Wow great video!
Very very nice the process to build one LOCO..... just fantastic !!!! :-)
Excellent demonstration video. Great detail and photography. (Nice music too!)
Very cool, thank you!
Amazing attention to detail
Wow, that CNC machine was incredible.
I know Reynaulds really well,haven’t seen him in a while,A great person and his brother Roman just as great,started out in a basement in Elmhurst ILLinois some time now in Elburn,If you get a chance go and see these guys,tons of knowledge and they can answer anything
Hey Guys
Mike from Lombard
Hey Mike thanks for the kinda words. Come and see us sometime
So cool !
Awesome 👍
..and nice and gorgeous workers too!!! :)
I'm sure they were told to "dress up" for the video. But whatever...these are NOT toys anymore. They are engineering marvels.
Great video 👍
Awesome! Just awesome!
Brilliant.
awesome
Nice video, well done.
Very informative
the video was amazing … intrigued and mystified. rock on, reynaulds.com … all the best to you and those employees who make you what you are.
Thanks so much for your kind words!!
Amazing, you would have to sell a lot of those to get your production money back. I wish Roco made American Locomotives.
About 15 years ago maybe longer they were supposed to make the AC4400cw but it never happened.
@@tomr9509 and a couple of years ago, they announced a SD40, but again, never happened... :(
Seem to remember they used to make HO scale US locos for Atlas back in the 90’s
I own an Atlas boston and maine s4 switcher that roco made. They did all of atlas diesel back in the mid 70s
Donald Swink Don’t worry about it, in North America there’s Athearn, Atlas, Rapido, and ScaleTrains to name a few
I always wondered how molds were made. Thanks!
still a work of art
Amazing! And all along I thought it was elves.
Me too!!
very interesting never new how much work went into building one of those things
WOW! I had no earthly idea.
Amazing
My favorite MRR manufacturer is Roco. I'm willing to pay extra for models made in Europe. Roco has superb motors also, and together with decoders from ZIMO, the locomotives are the best runners I know. I just watched how Rapido Trains use a laser scanner to make accurate 3D drawings from prototypes. I hope this will become the new industry standard.
From now on I will look more closely at the models I am going to buy, you have no idea how many machines and specialized people to produce such a good quality model made by quality people.
Folks must have excellent training. Cheers!
I’ll never complain about the price of a new loco ever again... 👍
Amazing skills and being in engineering myself, I know that the tooling cost itself would be in the £100,000 + area. Technology at its finest...well done Roco !, great looking Loco.
To tooling, research and development is about 2 million Euros.
Good job.
Good One.
Superb to see and products are so detailed. Nice one :-) Loco could do with their expertise to LoL Iain
Looks a lot better than the Athearn rubber band drive F unit I bought for about $6 in 1960.
And now today's Athearn Genesis products can put older brass imports to shame.
Very interesting video. I wish there had been some description of some of the processes though.
안녕하세요 윤김 입니다 🤟🛎🛎👍👍👍🔊🔊🔊
Roco, you are the best. Fantastics machins. A great workshop very modern. Famous designers, high quality and practical. Finest modeling... And very beautifuls girls working in this fashion factory.. I had a good deal of Roco's model. I love my BB9004 too.... Roco the best of all. So, on the Last model we can't see made in Austria writing on the top of the box, why?
Roco produces most of there models now in Romania and Slovakia. The video is in the factory in Romania
@@ReynauldsEuroImports
All right. The beautifuls girls come from Romania....
Well, more seriously, the products stays in Europe. That's all right.
Not from China...... Like overs....
That’s extraordinary. I’m going shopping for my grand children. Nah. For me 🤣
They are more than toys. They’re spiritual. The Roco team can be very proud.
All this for a toy train, amazing!

Not toys, scale models. There's a big difference.
Wow. I had no idea.
Now I see why models take a long time to come out like the Sydney Tangaras
I'd love to see a video on how they ere make before computers and lasers!
excelente..... quisiera un trabajo así...
I am also one of your customers!
Glad you like the video, we really wanted to share the process of building a model. The work that goes into it is overwhelming.
It's a very good thing.they make own items.
Wow!
What a surprise to have your name pop up in my search! I used to buy all of my Roco gear from you guys 30 years ago. Hope you're doing well!
That is crazy, what is your name?
Kurt ozinga - You guys were very helpful
when i see that beautiful Kern cnc milling, i know that you're serious to make good mold.
Oh yes they use high quality machines to build these precision models
It’s hard to believe there’s still a market for His stuff.
There is even a market for 'Her' stuff as well you know!
Roco ha rivoluzionato il modellismo ferroviario italiano con l'uscita, tanti anni fa, della bellissima ed avveniristica, per la fedeltà ai dettagli ed alla scala, E626, in tutte le livree e versioni. Di seguito ha incrementato la produzione di materiale rotabile italiano con eccellenti prodotti, carri, carrozze, materiale di trazione. Una produzione sempre eccellente, e credo apprezzata dal mercato italiano, che ha dimostrato un discreto volume di acquisti. Ora ci sentiamo trascurati, nuovi modelli ispirati alle nostre ferrovie non ne appaiono da tempo. Come mai ?
Cool
More work than I thought it would be. I wonder if 3D printing can speed up the development process? Now imagine how much work it would be to get an O gauge Lionel BigBoy to market?
3D printing is still way too slow and the manufacturing would be too expensive because how slow the printing is. Also you still would need to produce a nice zinc or die cast frame. It cost about 2 million to bring out a high end model in Europe but once the tooling is built you can manufacture that model for decades.
Great video!! Can anyone tell me the title of the song that is in the background? I like it very much...
Great BUT..... do they not test them before packaging?
not really, trust me I've gotten lot of models with missing parts or not running properly
I have ROCO...beauty
1:12 It is all about "Java 2" .. is just the basic of.... my dektop screen...
Are you giving credits to roco for the video to roco or should i? :)
I want working in train model factory like this
Yes I think we all would!!
That was cool. My uncle has been model railroading for more than 60 years. How did they design and build models before CAD and CNC machines?
Seriously? The industrial revolution started in 1760 so industrial manufacturing at all scales existed for around 200 years before the first industrial CAD/CAM systems started appearing.
USA manufacturers lang ago ran off to China and are now going to paying the price for it. There is no reason US manufacturers could not do as Roco and keep it in the USA. I have a number of their locos and they are world class.
Because they'd be likely be even more expensive than they are now.
Americans are super sensitive to price. If anything had to be sold for $300 with sound they'd have a fit.
When the motors are built with the SAME integrity as when they were built in Austria, they shall run forever. I have over a dozen of them and they run smoothly.
american made means made by inbreed toothless meth-heads
Seeing this, it would be great if you had a kit for sale. I'd buy one! And I bet others would too. :-)
Sammy we have that model but it is finished ready to run.
Manufacturers seem to be getting away from kits. Even the venerable Athearn, Walthers, etc are pretty much all RTR.
