Diesel locomotive BR 260 DB Era IV: Reliable shunting locomotive in G gauge
The BR 260 DB Era IV diesel loc omotive is a new item from 2025 and expands the PIKO G-gauge collection with a robust and detailed shunting locomotive. With its true-to-original design, high-quality technology and versatile applications, this model is an indispensable part of any garden railway layout.
The prototype: The BR 260 of the German Federal Railroad
The class 260, also known as the "V60", was a versatile shunting locomotive of the German Federal Railroad. It was developed in the 1950s and was frequently used in stations and freight yards in Era IV (1968-1985). With its compact design and reliability, the BR 260 quickly became an indispensable locomotive for shunting work and light line services.
PIKO - Quality and attention to detail in G scale
The model of the BR 260 from PIKO impresses with finely designed details such as individually attached grab irons and windshield wipers as well as a driver's cab with driver figure. The chrome-plated wheelsets with ball bearings and the robust running gear ensure reliable running characteristics. With its high tractive power and precise workmanship, this shunting locomotive is a real highlight.
Era IV: Shunting work at the highest level
Era IV marked a period of modernization at the German Federal Railways, in which locomotives such as the BR 260 played a central role. The PIKO model brings the typical atmosphere of this period to your garden railway layout in true detail and is ideal for realistic shunting and operating scenarios.
Technology and equipment of the BR 260
The model is prepared for retrofitting a PIKO sound decoder (#36539) and thus offers the possibility of individual expansion. The direction of travel-dependent light change in white/white provides additional authenticity. With a minimum radius of 600 mm, the locomotive is versatile and suitable for a wide variety of layout layouts.
Why the BR 260 is a must for G gauge
The BR 260 DB Era IV diesel locomotive combines historical authenticity, high-quality technology and flexible application options. Whether in shunting service or as a solo locomotive - this model is a perfect addition to any garden railway layout.
