Piko 50688 BR Pm2 steam locomotive, PKP, Ep. IV (incl. sound + steam) - A legend in the most modern version

The Piko 50688 BR Pm2 steam loc omotive is an impressive replica of the elegant Pacific steam locomotive of the Polish State Railways (PKP) from Era IV. This model is a masterpiece of the art of model building and combines historical authenticity with the latest technology. With a factory-integrated sound decoder, steam generator and digitally switchable lighting, the Pm2 brings both visual and technical highlights to any H0 layout.

The prototype of the BR Pm2 steam locomotive

The class Pm2 is based on the German class 03, which was built for the Deutsche Reichsbahn between 1930 and 1938. After the Second World War, 36 of these locomotives were taken over by the PKP and operated there as the Pm2. Their high-lying boiler, the airy bar frame and the filigree running gear made them a technical and aesthetic highlight of rail transport. The locomotive symbolizes the elegance and efficiency of steam technology at that time.

Piko - the art of model making and innovation

With the BR Pm2, Piko delivers a model that impresses with its attention to detail and technical sophistication. Fine boiler pipes, bells, pumps and lamps are precisely reproduced and give the locomotive a realistic appearance. The red flickering firebox and the digitally switchable lighting in the driver's cab and running gear set standards in terms of prototype fidelity and functionality.

Era IV - tradition meets progress

Era IV (1970-1990) marks the transition from traditional steam technology to modern traction. Locomotives such as the Pm2, which were in service with the PKP during this period, combine the historic charm of steam locomotives with the first signs of technical modernization. This model perfectly captures the essence of this era.
