Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2022: Variant of the BR S499 as the BR 340 of the ČD Cargo in Era VI. The grace of the shapely machines of the type Škoda 47E "Laminátka" was excellently transferred to the scale 1:87 and an absolutely coherent overall picture was created. The many attractive details, such as the skylights in the engine room, have been elegantly implemented and the strongly structured lines of the locomotive body visualized by sharp engravings. Precisely reproduced were technical elements, such as the bogies, which complete the successful design of the model. The colorful livery of the prototype, including dynamic trim elements, also suits the locomotive in 1:87 thanks to elaborate painting and printing. The locomotive is powered by a five-pole motor whose smooth running is perfected by two flywheel masses. Lighting in red and white, which changes with the direction of travel, is of course present and designed in contemporary LED technology. For easy retrofitting of a digital decoder, the locomotive has a PluX22 interface. Thanks to a generously dimensioned speaker mount, a vehicle sound can also be installed quite easily.
