The quiet-running bell-type armature motor ensures smooth running characteristics, even in low-speed operation. Digitization is possible thanks to existing solder connections, a standardized interface is not integrated.

Historical background

The IV K locomotives of the Saxon design are among the best-known narrow gauge locomotives in Germany. In Era IV, they were still widely used on the Deutsche Reichsbahn, particularly in the Erzgebirge and in Saxony. The 99 1542-2 locomotive represents the late operational phase of this class and shows the modifications that were made to these locomotives in the 1970s and 1980s.

Compatibility & expansion options

The locomotive is suitable for all common H0e track systems and can be perfectly combined with DR cars from eras IV-V. Matching additional cars, shunting modules or Saxon station models provide for harmonious operating scenes. The coupler is compatible with other Bemo vehicles and digitization can be retrofitted if required.
