Piko 52376 H0 Diesel Locomotive DE18, SBB Cargo International, Ep. VI - Modern Tractive Power with Swiss Precision

The Piko 52376 DE18 diesel locomotive brings contemporary technology and striking design of Era VI to your H0 DC layout. As a replica of the Vossloh DE18 in the attractive design of SBB Cargo International, the model impresses with its attention to detail, solid technology and digital future-proofing - ideal for modern freight traffic scenarios on European model railroad layouts.

True-to-original design for current model railroad environments

PIKO realistically implements the DE18 with its typical SBB Cargo International proportions, precise lettering and prototypical color concept. The locomotive fits perfectly into train sets of today's Era VI and brings a touch of international railroad modernity to your layout.

Powerful drive for reliable operation

A powerful motor drives all four wheel sets via two cardan shafts, supported by two traction tires for optimum traction. The locomotive easily masters longer trains and demanding track layouts - ideal for freight traffic on main and branch lines.

Digitally prepared - sound-capable with PluX22 interface

The model is equipped with an NEM 658 PluX22 interface and is already prepared for retrofitting with a sound decoder. Thanks to the generous installation space, a loudspeaker with optimum sound development can be installed - perfect for model railroaders who want to digitize their fleet in a targeted manner.

Modern lighting functions included

In digital mode, the driver's cab lighting can be switched separately. The direction of travel-dependent light change in white/red ensures a realistic operational display during day and night operation - a visual highlight on any modern layout.

The Piko 52376 DE18 is the ideal choice for anyone who wants to expand their H0 layout with a modern, powerful and visually striking model. Now available in the model railroad store - ready for digital conversion with full sound capability!
