PIKO 57569 H0 Steam locomotive BR 55, NS, Era III, DC sound

The PIKO 57569 BR 55 steam locomotive in the version of the Dutch state railroad NS is an excellently detailed model for DC operation in Era III. This robust tank locomotive impresses with its filigree linkage, free-standing whistle, replica of the coal box and a factory-installed PluX22 sound decoder for an authentic sound experience.

Prototype: Class 55 - workhorse of freight traffic

The class 55 was originally designed as the Prussian G 8.1 and was the backbone of the medium freight train service throughout Europe for decades. These locomotives were also used by the Dutch state railroad NS after the Second World War. Their striking silhouette, the external linkage and the robust technology made them the symbol of an entire generation of steam locomotives.

Model technology and equipment

The model is equipped with a PluX22 digital decoder and offers extensive sound functions via the factory-installed PIKO sound decoder. The coal box is fitted with a realistic replica of the coal, while the whistle has been fitted separately. The detailed driver's cab and the exactly reproduced wheel sets with functional linkage round off the high-quality appearance. The direction of travel-dependent light change in white provides additional prototypical fidelity.
