Piko 21815 H0 E-Lok Rh 1216, LTE, Ep.VI Product Details
Piko 21815 H0 Electric Locomotive Rh 1216 LTE, Era VI
The Piko 21815 H0 Class 1216 Electric Locomotive in the LTE version brings a modern Era VI electric locomotive to the H0 layout. The prototype features a striking, contemporary design and is intended as a powerful multi-system vehicle for international freight transport. Piko has produced this variant as a detailed H0 Expert model for the 2L DC system, thereby combining a modern private-railway locomotive with a clear focus on current freight train themes.
Class 1216 in a modern LTE version
The prototype for the Piko 21815 is an LTE Class 1216 electric locomotive. The striking modern design defines the character of this model variant and ensures a distinctive presence within an Era VI fleet. Its association with LTE gives the model a clearly defined private railway configuration.
The Class 1216 is depicted here as a multi-system vehicle and is suitable for international freight transport. This makes the locomotive particularly well-suited for use at the head of modern freight trains. The combination of contemporary design, Era VI, and internationally oriented freight transport makes the Piko 21815 an interesting addition to modern H0 train sets.
Detailed H0 Expert Version
Piko offers the 21815 as a detailed H0 Expert version. Thus, in addition to the modern LTE design, this model also emphasizes the model’s implementation within the Expert series. The locomotive is designed for H0 gauge and can be integrated into a modern fleet of this scale.
Its clear association with Era VI allows for a targeted combination with contemporary freight cars and other modern rolling stock. Particularly within an international freight train theme, the Class 1216 can assume its characteristic role as a multi-system electric locomotive.
DC Version for Modern H0 Layouts
The Piko 21815 is designed as a DC version for the 2L DC system. The model is not digitally equipped and does not feature sound. A NEM652 interface is provided for digital upgrades.
Thus, the locomotive offers a clearly defined technical foundation for use on an H0 DC layout. The existing interface can be taken into account when upgrading the model, while the locomotive is operated in analog mode in the version as supplied.
LED Lighting with Red-White Light Change
The Piko 21815 comes equipped with lighting featuring alternating red and white lights. LEDs are used as the light source. This gives the electric locomotive a modern lighting system that complements its use with contemporary freight trains.
The length over buffers is 225 mm. The minimum curve radius is specified as 358 mm. These values allow for clear classification of the model when planning its use on an existing H0 layout.
For international freight transport in Era VI
The Piko 21815 is a modern electric locomotive whose prototype is suitable for international freight transport. This allows the model to be specifically integrated into contemporary freight train themes. The LTE version ensures a distinctive appearance within a modern private railway fleet.
Regarding the coupler system, the locomotive features an NEM-compliant coupler box with KK kinematics. Together with the H0 Expert version, LED lighting, and the NEM652 interface, this results in a clearly defined set of features for model railroading.
Striking LTE Locomotive for the Modern Fleet
The Piko 21815 H0 Series 1216 LTE electric locomotive combines a modern Era VI prototype with an eye-catching design and detailed execution as an H0 Expert model. Due to its focus on international freight transport, the locomotive is particularly well-suited for use with modern freight trains.
With its LTE configuration, its use as a multi-system vehicle, and its technical features for the 2L DC system, the Piko 21815 adds a striking Era VI electric locomotive to a modern H0 fleet.
