Sound electric locomotive 112 311 DB IV AC version: A highlight of Era IV with PIKO sound decoder

The sound electric locomotive 112 311 is an impressive model that impresses with its attention to detail, technical innovation and outstanding driving characteristics. As part of the 112 series, the locomotive originated from the modified E 10 series and is a typical example of the electric express locomotives of the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) in Era IV. With a top speed of 160 km/h, the class 112 was predestined for use in high-quality express train services.

The prototype of the sound electric locomotive 112 311 DB IV

The 112 series was designed as a further development of the successful E 10 series. The aim was to increase the speed and efficiency of the locomotives in order to meet the growing demands of express train services. Locomotive 112 311, a highlight of this series, was the last locomotive to be given the iconic red/beige color scheme that characterized this era. This design was not only a trademark of DB in the 1970s, but also an expression of a new, modern appearance.

The class 112 was a symbol of technical progress and played a central role in the long-distance services of Era IV. With its robust design and striking aerodynamic front, it became an icon of German railroad history.
