The Piko 47493 shows the elegant electric locomotive BR 212 of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) as a form variant with the road number 212 002-0. This model impresses with its prototypical detailing, modern technology and integrated digital sound. With its striking shape and typical DR color scheme, it is a real highlight for any TT layout of Era IV.
The class 212 is designed in the classic color scheme of the German Reichsbahn of Era IV and is characterized by precise engravings, the finest printing and realistic proportions. The roof structure with its finely depicted insulators and pantographs has been faithfully reproduced. The model impresses with its clean workmanship, sharp printing and the filigree representation of the locomotive fronts.
The model is designed for direct current operation (2-wire DC) and is factory-fitted with a Next18 sound decoder. The realistic locomotive sound reproduces the typical sounds of the class 212 - from starting to braking. The locomotive also has a red/white light change depending on the direction of travel with energy-saving LED light sources. The NEM coupler pocket with close coupler kinematics ensures safe operation even in tight radii.
The class 212 was introduced by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the 1970s as a powerful electric locomotive for freight and express train services. Its robust design and high tractive power made it one of the DR's most important electric locomotives. It was also used on many main and branch lines in the GDR in Era IV and shaped electric rail traffic for decades.
The class 212 is designed for the TT scale (1:120) and is suitable for radii from 310 mm. It fits perfectly in Era IV express and freight train compositions and harmonizes ideally with DR Piko cars. Thanks to the modern digital technology and the integrated sound, it offers maximum driving fun in operation.
This model is aimed at model railroaders and collectors who are looking for a technically mature and authentic-sounding DR electric locomotive. The BR 212 impresses with its combination of realistic appearance, precise driving characteristics and high-quality sound - a must-have for every Era IV layout.
