Piko has created a worthy monument to this iconic locomotive with state-of-the-art technology and a detailed replica.

The prototype of the Piko BR E410 electric locomotive

The E410 series, later known as the BR 184, was developed at the end of the 1960s to avoid the time-consuming change of locomotives at the borders of Europe. Equipped with the ability to run under the different overhead line voltages in Germany, France, Belgium and Luxembourg, the Europa locomotive was a pioneer of cross-border rail transportation.

Initially, the locomotives were used on the Cologne-Liège route, later joined by connections between Trier, Luxembourg and France as well as journeys in Saarland and the Palatinate. Two of the five locomotives built are now preserved in museums and can be viewed at the DB Museum Koblenz-Lützel and the German Museum of Technology in Berlin.
