The prototype: V 60 D-2 of the WTK

The V 60, a proven and versatile shunting locomotive, found its place at WTK in the D-2 version. In the 1970s in particular, it was used for shunting work and light line services. Its robust construction and reliability made it an indispensable vehicle in the fleet of private railroads.

Detailed realization in the model

The model is characterized by precise workmanship, including fine engravings and prototypical paintwork. Modern LED technology makes it possible to change the lights (white/red) depending on the direction of travel. With a length over buffers of 125 mm and a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive is ideal for compact track layouts.

Sound decoder installed at the factory

The V 60 D-2 is factory-fitted with a Piko PSD XP sound decoder, which delivers impressive sound quality. The integrated loudspeaker provides authentic operating sounds such as engine sound, horn and brake squeal, making model railroad operation even more realistic.

Era IV: Private railroads of the 1970s

Era IV (1965-1990) stands for the diversity in rail transport, characterized by increasing privatization and modernization. The V 60 D-2 of the WTK is a typical vehicle of this era and brings the charm of historical shunting work to your layout.
