The Arnold HN2578 captures the complete S-114 Avant RENFE consist in N scale, finished in the special livery designed to mark the company's 75th Anniversary. Four articulated units totalling 690 mm in length reproduce the distinctive silhouette of this medium-distance high-speed train a familiar sight on the Spanish network in Era VI.
A complete formation ready to run
The set includes all 4 units that make up the consist, featuring a 5-pole motor, LED lighting with switchable white and red directional lights, NEM 355 couplers with KK kinematics, and a Next18 Interface for anyone who wants to move to digital at a later stage. The 192 mm minimum radius allows it to run on N scale layouts without the need for wide curves, making it easy to plan into more compact spaces.
The 75th Anniversary livery
The commemorative livery sets this model apart from the standard S-114 versions and gives it a distinctive identity within any N scale rolling stock collection. In a display cabinet, the special decoration makes the formation an instantly recognisable piece for anyone who follows RENFE's recent history. On the layout, 690 mm of train in motion creates a sense of a complete unit that few sets in this scale achieve so naturally.
Layout and track integration
With a minimum radius of 192 mm, the S-114 Avant can run on moderately sized N scale layouts without compromising smooth movement. The 4-unit consist adds real length to the train and visually balances any station scene or open-line section set in Era VI. For those looking to expand their options, Arnold also offers the HN2578S version with a built-in decoder and sound.
