For 66 years, ROCO has been delighting fans and collectors worldwide with innovative model railway technology. This technology is made visible on the exterior of the anniversary "Taurus" locomotive: the motor, gearbox, circuit board, and digital decoder are depicted in great detail. But is this the technology of a real Taurus—or the technology working unseen inside the model? That is a question for fans and rail travelers to answer for themselves.The legend of Europa and the bull symbolizes power, movement, and the courage to embark on a new journey. These are the very values ​​embodied by the Taurus electric locomotive, a name deliberately chosen to evoke the image of a powerful bull. Just as Europa was once carried across the sea, the Taurus today connects countries and cultures across Europe's railway network. It represents modern technology, reliability, and limitless mobility.
