Piko 55922 Sound Steam Locomotive BR 003 DB Era IV - A Masterpiece of Model Railroading for Sophisticated Railroad Experiences

The Piko 55922 BR 003 sound steam locomotive brings the majestic elegance of the German Federal Railroad from Era IV directly to your model railroad layout. This impressive model impresses with its detailed replica of the legendary express steam locomotive and offers extensive technical functions that will bring your layout to life. The BR 003 is characterized by its high, slim boiler and the characteristic bar frame, which gives it a translucent, filigree appearance. This model sets new standards in terms of attention to detail and performance for the H0 gauge.

The German Federal Railroad BR 003 - History of a cult locomotive

The class 003 belongs to the 01.10 series of the German Federal Railroad and was originally developed as a fast and powerful steam locomotive for heavy passenger service. The locomotives in this series were built from the 1930s onwards and were mainly used in the 1960s and 1970s. With a top speed of 140 km/h and a stylish design, the BR 003 characterized the image of express train traffic on German rails. In Era IV - the late DB era - the locomotive was operated under the class designation 003 and served prestigious routes. The combination of technical performance and aesthetic design made the class 003 a symbol of the heyday of steam locomotives at DB.

High-quality design and authentic details of the model

The model of the Piko 55922 steam locomotive BR 003 impresses with a wealth of authentic details that reflect the appearance of the original down to the smallest detail. The high boiler and the openwork bar frame are particularly striking, giving the locomotive a powerful yet light character. The delicate spoked wheels and the realistically reproduced balance weights give the model an authentic and detailed appearance. The filigree add-on parts such as bells, pumps and lamps have been precisely reproduced and round off the overall picture. The illuminated firebox and the switchable lighting in the engine and driver's cab also ensure a harmonious ambience on your layout.

Innovative technology and outstanding running characteristics

The Piko 55922 Class 003 steam locomotive is equipped with a PIKO sound decoder and a digital coupler, which are controlled via the PluX22 interface. These modern functions open up a wide range of possible uses and enable an authentic, intensive driving experience. The drive integrated in the tender and the flywheel mass ensure excellent driving characteristics and smooth running properties. The digital coupler offers additional functionality and allows uncomplicated integration into your H0 layout by simply coupling and uncoupling the locomotive.

A special technical refinement is the factory-installed steam function, which is controlled wheel-synchronously by a pulsed evaporator and perfectly synchronizes the steam output with the running speed. This ensures a realistic representation of steam operation and gives the locomotive an impressive appearance. In addition, the extensive sound functions, such as the wheel-synchronized steam ejections and locomotive whistles, can be controlled and offer a complete, immersive experience.

An eye-catcher on any H0 layout - perfect for use in the DC system

With a length over buffers of 275 mm and a minimum curve radius of 358 mm, the Piko 55922 is ideally suited for use on H0 layouts. The locomotive has a white/red light change depending on the direction of travel, which sets the model attractively in scene both when stationary and when moving. Thanks to the factory-installed steam function, which is controlled wheel-synchronously by the evaporator, this locomotive will be an absolute eye-catcher on your layout. It fits effortlessly into historical scenarios of Era IV and creates a vivid image of the steam locomotive era of the German Federal Railroad.
