Piko 40256 N Schienenbus 5081 + Steuerwagen, ÖBB, Ep. IV

Piko 40256 N Rail bus 5081 + control car, ÖBB, Ep. IV, N Rail bus 5081 with control car ÖBB IV 2-piece set

The Piko 40256 rail bus 5081 with ÖBB control car is a highlight for all friends of Austrian railroad history in N scale. The two-part set depicts the popular local transport classic from Era IV true to detail and offers a successful combination of technical sophistication and authentic appearance.

Realistic realization of the ÖBB prototype

The characteristic shape of the rail bus has been exactly reproduced in the model. Particularly noteworthy is the unobstructed view through the passenger compartments, which ensures a realistic appearance. The switchable interior lighting is already factory-fitted in both the driving and control car - ideal for atmospheric journeys on the layout.

The color scheme and the fine lettering correspond exactly to the appearance of the ÖBB vehicles in Era IV and make the rail bus an authentic component of historical train compositions.

Technology for reliable use on the layout

The model is driven by a powerful miniature motor with two flywheel masses, which ensure smooth running characteristics and even power transmission. The current-conducting close-coupling kinematics ensure a safe connection between the driving and control car and enable synchronous control of lighting and driving functions.

Digital future included

The model is equipped with an NEM 658 PluX16 interface and is therefore ready for simple retrofitting with a decoder. The direction of travel-dependent light change in white/red can be switched digitally, making the model ideal for integration into digital layout environments. The rail bus is also prepared for retrofitting a sound decoder (PIKO #46526).

Now realistically reproduce Austrian regional traffic!

With the Piko 40256 rail bus 5081 including control car, you get an iconic ÖBB vehicle on your N-gauge layout - technically sophisticated, visually convincing and ready for modern control concepts.
