Description

Piko 52470 Diesel locomotive MMID 65-Ton 102 - Compact power for shunting operations

With the Piko 52470 MMID 65-Ton 102 diesel locomotive, PIKO is bringing a beautifully designed variant of the 65-DE-19-A USA TC series to the model railroad. These locomotives were originally developed for the US military and found their way into various railroad companies worldwide after the Second World War. The version shown here belongs to the Maryland and Midland Railway (MMID) and is a perfect choice for model railroaders looking for a robust and versatile diesel locomotive for their layout. The locomotive is suitable for eras III to VI and is equipped with the latest digital and sound technology.

Detailed realization with prototypical paintwork

The PIKO MMID 65-Ton Diesel 102 is characterized by its detailed printing and high-quality paint scheme. The finely crafted grilles, grab rails and the realistic reproduction of the driver's cab doors are particularly striking. Thanks to its compact design and characteristic locomotive body, it fits perfectly into shunting yards, industrial facilities or works railroads.

Modern digital and sound technology

The model is equipped with a factory-installed mfx®-capable PSD XP 5.1 S sound decoder, which ensures a realistic sound experience. In addition to the true-to-original diesel engine sounds, shunting signals, braking noises and station announcements can also be called up. The integrated PIKO TrainSound® system offers a particularly high sound quality. The locomotive also has digitally switchable driver's cab lighting for an authentic look.

Powerful drive for excellent driving characteristics

The locomotive is equipped with a powerful high-performance drive that ensures a smooth and jerk-free ride. Two traction tires ensure high traction on the track. The direction of travel-dependent light change (white/red) enhances the realistic appearance. With a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive is also ideal for compact model railway layouts.

Flexibility and compatibility

The locomotive is designed for the 3-wire alternating current system (AC) and is therefore perfectly suited for Märklin-compatible layouts. The NEM shaft with close coupler link makes it easy to couple cars, making it ideal for shunting operations or freight traffic.

Perfect for model railway layouts with industrial and shunting operations

The Piko 52470 is an excellent choice for model railroaders looking for a compact but powerful diesel locomotive for shunting and works railway operation. The model fits perfectly in industrial scenarios, harbor railroads and branch lines.

Conclusion: High-quality technology in a compact model

The Piko 52470 MMID 65-Ton 102 diesel locomotive combines a detailed replica with the latest digital and sound technology. With its high-quality workmanship, excellent running characteristics and extensive sound functions, it is a first-class addition to any H0 model railway layout.
