The 193 series: A Vectron for the modern private railway

The class 193, better known as the Vectron, is one of the most advanced electric locomotives on European rails. It is mainly used by private railroads such as Alpha Trains for freight and passenger transport. This model faithfully reproduces the locomotive in its modern Era VI version, including the elegant "roof landscape" and detailed bogies.

Finest details and LED technology

The model impresses with sharply engraved bogie covers, prototypical wheel disk profiles and a precise reproduction of the technical "roof landscape". The LED lighting ensures that the light changes between white and red depending on the direction of travel, making the model look even more realistic. With a length over buffers (LüP) of 218 mm, the locomotive fits perfectly on any H0 model railway layout.

Excellent driving characteristics

A powerful PIKO motor with two large flywheel masses guarantees smooth running characteristics and precise control, even at low speeds. Two traction tires, arranged diagonally on the inside axles, provide additional traction. The locomotive is driven on all four axles, which considerably increases its tractive power.

Prepared for digital and sound retrofitting

The locomotive is equipped with a modern PluX22 interface in accordance with NEM 658, which facilitates the installation of a decoder. It is also prepared for retrofitting a PIKO sound decoder (#56544), which allows the locomotive to be acoustically upgraded.

Conclusion: A modern locomotive for demanding model railroaders

The Piko 21713 H0 Class 193 electric locomotive is a perfect choice for anyone who appreciates modern private railroads and high-quality model technology. With its detailed design, excellent running characteristics and the possibility of digital retrofitting, it is an enrichment for every H0 layout.
