Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2025: DB E 44 electric locomotive in Era III in the version with a resistance brake. The miniatures of the preproduction and series locomotives of the later class 144 shine with their exact scale realization. Equally sharp and precise engravings on the body provide enormous three-dimensional depth and underline the excellent overall impression. This is also continued in the running gear area with numerous specially attached parts on the striking bogies. Identical in model quality, the differences between the prototype locomotives have nevertheless been implemented in the model with the greatest possible depth of detail. The model also leaves little to be desired technically: The drive is both proven and robust, and a PluX22 interface makes it childs play to retrofit a PIKO digital decoder. In this constellation, it is possible to switch the engine room and drivers cab lighting, for example.
