The Piko N Sound Electric Locomotive BR E 32 DB III is a detailed model that brings a significant piece of German railway history to life on N-scale tracks. Following the successful launch of the E 91, PIKO introduces the BR E 32, a representative of the classic electric locomotives, showcasing the distinctive features of its era. With its rod drive, spoked wheels, short body design, and 1'C1' wheel arrangement, the model reflects the design similarities between early electric locomotives and steam engines.
This model, built at a 1:160 scale, is a visual and technical masterpiece, featuring intricate details like visible rivets on the roof, mounted sandboxes, brake hoses, and handrails. The period-accurate lamps and the delicate pantographs further enhance its authenticity, making it a perfect representation of historical locomotives. Beyond its visual appeal, the locomotive includes modern technological enhancements like factory-installed LED lighting with directional light changes and a factory-equipped PIKO Sound Decoder, bringing both the look and the sound of the original to your model railway.
The BR E 32 is part of PIKO's commitment to preserving and showcasing important railway designs from the early 20th century. Known for their robust build and resemblance to steam locomotives, the "Altbau" (old construction) electric locomotives were crucial in the development of Germany’s early electric railway systems. The BR E 32, in particular, served the Deutsche Bahn during the mid-20th century and has become an iconic piece of railway history. PIKO’s model stays true to this legacy, capturing the locomotive's form and function with precise detailing and high-quality materials.
PIKO is renowned for its ability to translate historical locomotives into precise models, and the BR E 32 DB III is no exception. The detailing is exquisite, with clearly visible rivet patterns on the roof, accurate sandboxes, and finely crafted brake hoses and handrails. The spoked wheels and pantographs are modeled with incredible precision, giving the locomotive an authentic and realistic appearance. The locomotive’s compact build, typical of early electric engines, is beautifully captured, with a focus on preserving the historical aesthetic while integrating modern technical features.
The paint and finish of the model also contribute to its realism, with era-appropriate color schemes and markings that add to the locomotive's vintage charm. The overall presentation is a perfect blend of historical accuracy and modern modeling techniques, making the BR E 32 a standout piece in any N-scale collection.
While the Piko N Sound Electric Locomotive BR E 32 looks like a piece of railway history, it is packed with state-of-the-art technology. The model is equipped with LED lighting that changes color based on the direction of travel, including red rear lights for an added touch of realism. These lights are not just decorative—they are designed to replicate the operational lights of the original locomotive.
At the heart of the locomotive’s performance is the factory-installed PIKO Sound Decoder. This Next18 sound decoder delivers authentic locomotive sounds, from the engine hum to the whistle, offering an immersive experience. The sound system is tuned to provide clear, realistic audio that matches the operations of the BR E 32, creating a dynamic and engaging model railway experience.
