Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2025: DB electric locomotive 112 311 in Era IV. The class 112 electric express locomotives were developed from the modified class E 10 and boasted top speeds of 160 km/h. The 112 311 was the last locomotive in the series to be painted in the characteristic red/beige color scheme, which is also harmoniously reproduced in the model. In addition, the PIKO model takes into account all the structural features of the locomotive and impresses on the layout with its excellent driving characteristics. The PIKO 112 has a matching PIKO PSD XP sound decoder ex works and comes with numerous digitally switchable functions. The model bears the “fits mfx®” quality mark. In order to make digital decoders reliably usable for all users of the current Märklin digital control centers, a new “fits mfx®” quality mark was introduced together with Märklin and other manufacturers. This can only be used by digital decoders that have undergone and fully passed a special mfx® test. These decoders and also the locomotives in which they are installed bear the “fits mfx®” quality mark, which certifies unrestricted mfx® functionality. This means that PIKO products with the “fits mfx®” logo now also fully support the diverse functions of mfx®.
