Description

Arnold HN9071HM TT diesel locomotive Class 66, HGK, Era V-VI, DC sound: Power and realistic soundscape

The Arnold HN9071HM TT diesel locomotive Class 66 "HGK" not only brings visually impressive details to your model railway layout, but also impresses with an integrated BLE sound decoder for a realistic sound experience. With its red paint scheme, yellow front and authentic HGK lettering, this locomotive is a highlight of Era V-VI and perfect for heavy freight traffic.

The prototype: The versatile Class 66 in the service of HGK

The Class 66, one of the most successful diesel-electric locomotives in Europe, is known for its high tractive power and reliability. The version in the HGK design (Häfen und Güterverkehr Köln) belongs to a private rail operator that is active in international freight transportation. These locomotives are specially designed for transporting heavy loads such as containers, bulk goods or building materials and are used on routes throughout Europe.

The eye-catching red paintwork with the yellow front is characteristic of HGK and makes the locomotive immediately recognizable. With its robust construction and powerful engine, the Class 66 is a symbol of modern logistics.

Arnold - Detailed replica with realistic sound

Arnold stands for the highest precision and quality in model making. The HN9071HM diesel locomotive impresses with its finely detailed add-on parts, ventilation grilles and true-to-original printing. The integrated BLE sound decoder offers a realistic sound experience with engine noises, signal horns, brakes and other sound effects that make operation on your model railway layout particularly authentic.

Technical details of the Arnold HN9071HM diesel locomotive

The model has a length over buffers of 179 mm and is designed for the 2-wire direct current system (DC). Thanks to the Next18 interface, the locomotive is equipped with a BLE sound decoder that enables various digital sound functions. The LED lighting ensures a prototypical light change between red and white, depending on the direction of travel. The NEM standard coupling shafts with close coupling kinematics guarantee a perfect connection with other cars and locomotives.

Era V-VI: Modern locomotives in international freight traffic

Era V (1990-2007) and Era VI (from 2007) are characterized by the transition to a liberalized rail network and the increasing importance of private rail operators. HGK was and is an important player in European rail freight transport. The Class 66 plays a central role in this and stands for high-performance and efficient transportation across national borders.
