This locomotive combines the highest level of detail with the latest technology and is a real gem for model railroaders looking for a high-quality model for their 0-gauge layout. With numerous functions such as interior lighting, digital sound and remote-controlled couplings, the class 212 provides realistic operation and fascinating details on your layout.

The prototype: The class 212 diesel locomotive

The class 212 is a powerful diesel locomotive that was originally put into service by the German Federal Railroad in the 1960s. It belongs to the V 100 family and was used for both passenger and freight traffic. In Era V, which dates between 1990 and 2006, the locomotive in its striking traffic red livery was in service with DB Cargo, where it proved its strength in freight transport in particular. Its robust construction and versatility made the BR 212 a popular workhorse on the rails.

Technical details and equipment of the Lenz BR 212

The Lenz 40134-07 is equipped with drive over 4 axles, which ensures high tractive power and smooth operation. The locomotive is 273 mm long (length) and has metal wheelsets, which not only ensure stable running, but also a particularly long service life. The model is also equipped with spring buffers, which contribute to authentic driving behavior. The remote-controlled coupling enables convenient shunting on the layout, while the screw coupling can be retrofitted to further increase the level of detail.

Lighting and digital control

A special highlight of the Lenz BR 212 is the constant lighting, which ensures uniform illumination even at low speeds. The direction-dependent light change alternates between white headlights and red tail lights, depending on the direction of travel. The model also has interior lighting and driver's cab lighting that can be switched in digital mode. The rear light can also be switched separately to make operation even more realistic.

Sound and digital features

The model is equipped with a sound decoder that provides realistic operating sounds, including the typical engine noise of the class 212 diesel locomotive as well as braking noises and horn signals. The decoder is designed for both digital and analog operation and offers automatic detection of the operating mode. The locomotive also supports RailCom, which enables communication between the locomotive and the digital control center, as well as ABC and USP, ensuring precise control and uninterrupted operation.
