Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2021: The PIKO model of the attractive BR 120 pre-series electric locomotive impresses with the finest paint scheme and printing, applied grab irons, sharply engraved bogie covers, and filigree metal pantographs. The LED light change is white/red depending on the direction of travel by means of LEDs. The standard cab lighting and the direction-dependent tail lights can be controlled digitally with a PluX22 decoder. The five-pole motor provides excellent driving characteristics with two flywheel masses. The heavy model with two traction tires for high tractive forces has a PluX22 digital interface according to NEM 658 and is prepared for easy retrofitting with sound and the largest possible speaker. The AC model is already factory-equipped with a suitable mfx-compatible PluX22 decoder. Brake hoses for retrofitting are included.
