The high-quality finished metal model is equipped with a smooth-running bell-type armature motor and is digitally prepared - an ideal highlight for narrow-gauge railroads of the post-reunification era.

Prototype: The 99 566 - Saxonian IV K as a DR reconstruction version

The locomotives of the 99.51-60 series (Saxon IV K) are among the longest-lived and best-known narrow gauge locomotives in Germany. In the GDR, numerous locomotives were extensively reconstructed from the 1960s onwards. The 99 566 received welded water boxes, a new reconditioned roof with four fans and other technical modifications in order to continue to reliably master the tough everyday operation on the narrow-gauge railroads in Saxony - for example on the Preßnitz Valley Railway or in the Weißeritz Valley.

Model description: High-quality recreation version with attention to detail

The Bemo 1016867 brings this reconditioned version with the finest detailing and modern technology to the H0e tracks. Equipped with a powerful bell-shaped armature motor, the model offers excellent running characteristics even at slow speeds. The digitally prepared electronics make it easy to retrofit a decoder for digital operation. With numerous filigree add-on parts, true-to-original proportions and a length over buffers of 103.5 mm, the model is an ideal candidate for Era V operational scenery.
