Description

Piko 52378 H0 Diesel locomotive DE18, SBB Cargo International, Ep. VI, AC sound - Modern power for freight traffic

The Piko 52378 DE18 diesel locomotive in the design of SBB Cargo International is a real highlight for modern H0 layouts. This design variant of the classic Vossloh classics impresses with its authentic appearance and ultra-modern technology. As an AC model with integrated sound, it is specially designed for demanding model railroaders of Era VI.

Detailed model of the SBB Cargo International

The model exactly reproduces the typical proportions, lettering and eye-catching design of the SBB Cargo International. The color scheme is sharply contoured and gives the locomotive its modern, unmistakable appearance. This means that the DE18 fits perfectly into contemporary train compositions.

Powerful technology with a sound experience

A powerful motor drives all four wheel sets via two cardan shafts and ensures outstanding tractive power in layout operation. Equipped with a factory-fitted PluX22 sound decoder from PIKO and a powerful loudspeaker, the locomotive provides a realistic sound experience that makes every operation an acoustic highlight.

Fully digitally controllable - with modern lighting functions

The locomotive has digitally switchable driver's cab lighting as well as a light change in white/red depending on the direction of travel. Together with the sound decoder, this creates an operating atmosphere that is in no way inferior to the prototype. The digital control via the NEM 658 PluX22 interface also allows precise function assignment.

Robust design for everyday model railroad use

With a length over buffers of 139 mm and a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive is suitable for use on almost all H0 AC layouts. Two traction tires provide excellent traction, even under load. The NEM coupler with close coupler link ensures a realistic and reliable connection with rolling stock.

Ideal for modern Era VI freight trains

The DE18 from SBB Cargo International is perfect for realistic shunting and freight train scenarios in modern railroad operations. As an attractive and versatile model, it is the perfect addition for anyone who wants to keep their layout up to date with the latest railroad technology.
