Product details (technical specifications)

Design & workmanship

The SM31 comes in the harmonious livery of a European private railroad of Era VI and impresses with its fine engravings, detailed printing, realistic ventilation grilles and high-quality add-on parts. The robust construction and the authentically reproduced shape give it a realistic appearance on your model railway landscape.

Technical features & special functions

Equipped with a factory-installed PIKO sound decoder, the 52313 offers realistic operation and acoustics: Motor and shunting sounds, braking and other effects can be output directly via your digital central unit. The NEM 658 PluX22 connection makes the locomotive ideal for digital control. The digitally switchable driver's cab lighting ensures harmonious scenes during night operation and the light change depending on the direction of travel underlines the realistic overall impression.

Historical background

In the real prototype, the SM31 developed into a versatile shunting and light mainline traction unit. In Era VI, comparable locomotives are increasingly being used by private railroad companies that take on cargo or shunting tasks on modern layouts. These locomotives combine classic diesel power with current operational requirements - an exciting prototype for any modern H0 layout.
