Description

Piko 50638 Steam locomotive BR 83.10, DR, Ep. IV (incl. sound + steam) - A striking novelty for your model railway layout

The Piko 50638 BR 83.10 steam locomotive is an impressive form variant of this famous class of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) from Era IV. With a multitude of fine details, modern technology and factory-integrated sound and steam function, this model is a highlight for demanding model railroad fans. The three-domed design with the striking long locomotive sign on the smokebox door gives this locomotive its special character.

The prototype of the BR 83.10 steam locomotive

The class 83.10 is one of the most striking tank locomotives of the Deutsche Reichsbahn. This powerful locomotive was designed for freight and passenger train service and is particularly known for its three-domed design and the distinctive wind deflectors. In Era IV, the time of post-war modernization and the transition to modern traction, it played an important role in DR railroad operations.

Piko - model making at the highest level

With the BR 83.10, Piko has once again established itself as a leading manufacturer of model railroads. The model impresses with its attention to detail, the many attached parts such as lines, wind deflectors, bell and whistle as well as the high-quality workmanship. The driver's cab and running gear lighting, the two-light headlights and the factory-integrated smoke set round off the overall package and ensure an authentic playing experience.

Era IV - Modernity meets tradition

Era IV (1970-1990) marks the transition from traditional steam technology to more modern types of traction. Models from this period are particularly popular as they combine the historic charm of steam locomotives with the technical advances of this era. The BR 83.10 is a prime example of this exciting era.

Design and color scheme

The BR 83.10 is painted in a classic black livery, complemented by fine details such as filigree spoked wheels, sand pipes and detailed ladders. The three-domed design and the long locomotive sign on the smokebox door give this locomotive its unique look. The model is a real eye-catcher on any H0 layout.

H0 gauge - perfect size for collectors and layout operators

The model is designed for H0 gauge (scale 1:87) and has a length over buffers of 172 mm. With a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive is ideal for use on medium and large model railroad layouts. The robust workmanship guarantees long-term enjoyment of operation.

Accessories and expansion options

Piko offers a wide range of accessories for the BR 83.10, including brake hoses, draw hooks and long protective tubes, which are included with the model. Spare parts and additional wagons for a prototypical train composition extend the possible uses and increase the play value.
