Description

Catalog description
Novelty 2023: Print variant of the cult locomotive of the class 118 in the version as E 18 of the DB in epoch III. The PIKO model convinces with the coherent implementation of its prototype of the Bundesbahn. The fine wheel sets, the exact reproduction of the prototypical roof equipment with filigree pantographs and the exact reproduction of the front sections are to be emphasised. The cab and engine room lights as well as the direction-dependent front and rear lights can be controlled digitally with a PluX22 decoder. The model with a zinc die-cast frame has excellent driving characteristics and high tractive forces. A retrofit with sound and the largest possible loudspeaker is prepared on the tidy circuit board with PluX22 interface.
