Sound & technology - modern equipment meets retro style

Thanks to digitally switchable driver's cab lighting, engine room lighting and illuminated train destination display (decoder-based), the model creates an authentic operating atmosphere. The soundscape of the factory-fitted sound decoder also brings the tracks to life. Two delicate metal pantographs and detailed engine room equipment round off the technology package.

Historical prototype of the class 111

The class 111 was introduced in the 1970s as the modern successor to the class 110. With a top speed of 160 km/h, it met the requirements of local and long-distance transportation at the time. The locomotives with train destination displays and eye-catching colors were used particularly in the S-Bahn area of the Rhine-Ruhr region - a characteristic image of Era IV.

Wide range of applications & compatibility

The locomotive runs reliably on all H0 DC layouts with a minimum radius of 358 mm. Digital control is via an NEM 658 PluX22 interface. The universal NEM coupler pocket with close coupler link allows flexible train combinations - especially with passenger cars from the 70s and 80s.
