With its timeless elegance, precise details and technical sophistication, this model brings the charm of the prototype perfectly to your H0 layout.

The prototype: MÁV class M61 NoHAB

The NoHAB locomotives are considered an icon of locomotive construction. With its streamlined design and striking portholes, the M61 was used by MÁV for both passenger and freight traffic. The Hungarian version of the NoHAB is characterized by a special elegance and functionality that still fascinates railroad enthusiasts today.

Piko: Attention to detail and faithful realization

The model benefits from the elegance of the prototype and implements this impressively with numerous intricate details. The side ventilation grilles are executed as fine etched parts and attract everyone's attention. Striking front windows and the flush-mounted portholes complete the harmonious overall appearance. The precise reproduction of the bogies rounds off the high-quality impression.

Preparation for sound retrofitting

The model is equipped with a PluX22 interface (NEM 658) and is prepared for retrofitting a Piko PSD XP sound decoder (#56608) with a large loudspeaker. This allows you to enhance the model with realistic sounds such as engine noises and signal horn and make it even more authentic.

Technical features and driving characteristics

A powerful motor with two flywheels ensures smooth running characteristics and high tractive power. Two traction tires increase traction, while the light change (white/red) depending on the direction of travel is implemented using modern LED technology. The digitally switchable cab lighting completes the functionality of the model and makes it a highlight on your layout.

Era IV: The era of modern railroad history

Era IV (1965-1990) stands for a time of technical progress and international railroad cooperation. The BR M61 NoHAB in the MÁV version represents this period perfectly and allows you to realistically depict typical scenarios of this time.
