Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2024: Printed version of the DR class 231 in Era IV. The model has prototypical front and side windows, handrails in front of the drivers cabs and a prototypical roof design with different fans. The heavy die-cast zinc frame gives the PIKO Ludmilla model a force modelled on the prototype, contributes to excellent running characteristics and provides enormous tractive power. The engine in the engine room has an engraved design. The precisely reproduced bogies and wheelsets are sure to impress modelling enthusiasts. Thanks to the PluX16 interface, it is easy to install a digital and sound decoder. The model is also prepared for retrofitting with sound. The model has TT close couplers!
