Rh 242 ČSD Era V sound electric locomotive: A sonorous classic in TT gauge

The Rh 242 ČSD Era V sound electric locomotive is a novelty from 2025 and another masterpiece from PIKO. This model impresses with its prototypical realization and factory-fitted sound equipment, which makes it a highlight on every TT model railway layout. With the Rh 242 of the Československé státní dráhy (ČSD), you can bring a piece of railroad history of Era V directly to your layout.

The prototype: The Rh 242 of the ČSD

The class 242 was an electric locomotive that was used by the ČSD (Czechoslovakian State Railroad) for freight and passenger transport. In Era V (from 1990), this locomotive was an important part of operations and was modernized to meet the increased requirements. The Rh 242 was known for its reliable performance and striking appearance, which was faithfully reproduced in the model.

PIKO - Innovative technology for TT gauge

PIKO stands for the highest quality and innovative technology. With the Rh 242 sound electric locomotive, PIKO offers a model that meets the highest demands thanks to the Next18 interface and the factory-fitted sound decoder. The TT close couplings ensure prototypical operation and easy integration into train formations. This model combines the latest technology with an authentic representation of railroad history.

Era V: Transition to the modern age

Era V was characterized by restructuring and modernization, especially in the ČSD. The Rh 242 is a symbol of this time and stands for reliability and adaptability. The PIKO model reflects this exciting phase with the highest precision and brings Era V to life on your layout.

Technology and equipment of the Rh 242 sound electric locomotive

The model impresses with its modern technology and attention to detail. The factory-fitted Next18 sound decoder provides realistic operating sounds, while the direction-dependent light change in white and red provides additional authenticity. The TT close couplers ensure easy handling and a realistic appearance in operation. The small minimum radius of 310 mm also makes the model ideal for smaller layouts.
