The new engine 18 201 was created from high-speed tender locomotive 61 002 and parts of high-pressure test locomotive H 25 024. The steam generator was a modified new boiler construction of the class 22 with an extended smoke chamber and Giesl ejector. The machine was equipped with a counter-pressure brake to ensure that the speed was maintained precisely when travelling at high speed. Fast travel meant up to 175 km\/h, because the 18 201 was initially approved for this maximum speed – later 180 km\/h – but of course only forwards.","brand":"Roco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43092975911017,"sku":"9005033065157","price":1097.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/8629\/4889\/files\/7110006-01.jpg?v=1771979158","url":"https:\/\/auroratrains.com.au\/products\/roco-7110006-high-speed-steam-locomotive-18-201-coal-fired-dr-dcc-sound-ho-scale","provider":"Aurora Trains","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
