The Piko 51162 BR 249 hybrid locomotive is an impressive model that combines the latest technology, environmental awareness and detailed design. With a realistic sound and extensive functions, this locomotive brings the advanced railroad technology of Deutsche Bahn AG (DB AG) from Era VI to your model railway layout. An indispensable highlight for all model railroaders who value precision and innovation.
The class 249, better known as Vectron Dual Mode, was developed by Siemens Mobility to meet the requirements for flexibility and efficiency in rail transportation. This hybrid locomotive combines the advantages of a powerful diesel drive with the efficiency of an electric locomotive. The ability to operate in both electric and diesel mode makes it ideal for use on electrified and non-electrified lines.
The locomotive reaches a top speed of 160 km/h and offers an output of 2,000 kW in diesel mode and up to 5,200 kW in electric mode. This concept enables Deutsche Bahn to react flexibly to different track conditions without having to change locomotives. With its innovative multi-engine system, the BR 249 makes a significant contribution to reducing emissions and efficient energy consumption. The Vectron Dual Mode is a symbol of the new generation of locomotives that combine sustainability and performance.
