Description

PIKO 40842 N - Electric locomotive BR 152 DB Cargo, Era V

The class 152 is one of the characteristic freight locomotives of the 1990s - and with the PIKO model 40842 in N scale, this legend is now coming to your model railway layout. The modern proportions with a smooth roof and large side sections have been masterfully realized on a scale of 1:160. Whether visually or technically - this model impresses across the board and is a must for all Epoch V enthusiasts.

Detailed realization of the prototype

The elegant lines of the class 152 are complemented by the finest details: Freestanding handrails, separately attached windscreen wipers and finely crafted bogies give the locomotive a high degree of realism. Particularly noteworthy are the two filigree single-arm pantographs made of metal, which are placed on the tidy roof area. The flush-mounted windows also allow a view into the detailed driver's cab.

Modern technology under the hood

The locomotive is also technically state-of-the-art: the integrated light change in red and white is carried out using modern LED technology and automatically adapts to the direction of travel. The locomotive offers high tractive power and smooth running characteristics - ideal for use in front of heavy freight trains. A Next18 interface (NEM 662) is prepared on the circuit board for digitization, making it easy to retrofit with a PIKO digital decoder.

Ideal for Epoch V layouts

The PIKO BR 152 in DB Cargo design complements any model railway layout of epoch V and offers a wide range of possible uses in freight transport. Thanks to its compact design with a clearance of 123 mm, it is also ideal for operation on smaller radii from 192 mm. The combination of attention to detail and technical sophistication makes it the ideal locomotive for demanding model railroaders.
