Description

Piko 40512 N Diesel locomotive BR 221 blue beige, DB, Ep. IV, N Diesel locomotive BR 221 DB IV

With the Piko 40512 BR 221 diesel locomotive, PIKO brings one of the most legendary machines of the German Federal Railroad to the N scale layout - now in the typical Era IV livery in blue-beige. The locomotive, also known under its original designation V200.1, was a symbol of powerful diesel traction on main and branch lines in the 1970s and 1980s.

Prototypical design with modern technology

The elegant design, combined with the striking blue and beige color scheme, has been precisely implemented in the model. PIKO ensures a realistic appearance with finely engraved details and sharp printing, which is convincing both when stationary and when running. The LED lighting with direction of travel-dependent light change in white/red provides harmonious lighting effects.

Proven drive technology for smooth operation

Thanks to two traction tires and a powerful motor, the class 221 offers very good driving characteristics - even with long trains. The locomotive is ideally suited for analog operation, but can also be easily retrofitted digitally thanks to the Next18 digital interface (NEM 662).

For main and branch line scenarios in Era IV

With a length over buffers of 115 mm and a minimum radius of 192 mm, the locomotive is ideally suited to both large layouts and more compact N-gauge layouts. It can be used flexibly in both freight and passenger traffic and perfectly rounds off any Era IV collection.
