Description

Sound electric locomotive BR 117 DB IV AC version: Precision and mfx® compatibility from PIKO

The sound electric locomotive BR 117 DB IV AC version is an impressive novelty in the model railway year 2025. This model shows the BR 117 of the Deutsche Bundesbahn in the early epoch IV and impresses with prototypical details such as filigree handrails, roof lines and free-standing sandboxes. Thanks to the factory-installed PSD XP sound decoder with a large loudspeaker and the unrestricted mfx® functionality, the locomotive is ideally suited for use on Märklin digital command stations.

The prototype: The BR 117 of the German Federal Railroad

The class 117 was a versatile electric locomotive that was a defining image on the tracks of the DB in the 1960s and 1970s. The characteristic front view with the three-part window, the robust add-on parts and the reliability made this class an indispensable element in the passenger and freight traffic of Era IV. The model reproduces this era with the highest precision.
