Piko 57827 H0 class 182 electric locomotive - DB AG "Deutschlandticket" design, era VI, AC Digital

The Piko 57827 BR 182 electric locomotive in H0 gauge presents itself in an eye-catching and modern design, which was created as part of the "Deutschland steigt ein" campaign for the Deutschlandticket. This special print version of the well-known Taurus series is optimized for digital alternating current (AC) operation and is equipped with a PSD XP digital decoder ex works. This model therefore combines modern technology with the well-known performance of the BR 182 and is ideal for model railroaders who want to depict contemporary themes on their Era VI layout.

The prototype: BR 182 Taurus in service with Deutsche Bahn

The BR 182, also known as the Taurus, is a versatile and powerful electric locomotive that was developed by Siemens for freight and passenger transportation. Deutsche Bahn AG uses the BR 182 for a variety of applications, whereby it is particularly valued for its high tractive power and flexibility. As part of the "Deutschlandticket" campaign, the BR 182 runs in the current "D-Ticket" design to advertise the Germany-wide ticket offer and increase the attractiveness of train travel.

The Piko model brings this modern Deutsche Bahn campaign to the layout in H0 scale and combines a striking look with technical highlights.

Detailed implementation and modern technology from Piko

The Piko 57827 model impresses with its fine details, especially the metal pantographs, which give the roof of the locomotive a realistic and high-quality look. The printing in the "Deutschlandticket" design is precisely executed and gives the locomotive a modern and eye-catching appearance that integrates perfectly into Era VI layouts.

The PSD XP digital decoder, which is installed ex works, enables simple and reliable control of the locomotive in digital AC operation. The decoder also supports the direction of travel-dependent light change in white, which gives the model additional authenticity. With the NEM 652 interface, the locomotive can be easily integrated into digital layouts if required and thus enables flexible use on modern model railway layouts.

Technical details of the Piko 57827 BR 182

The Piko BR 182 is designed for alternating current operation (AC) and has a length over buffers (LüP) of 225 mm. The minimum radius is 358 mm, making the locomotive suitable for a variety of track configurations. The equipment includes an NEM shaft coupling, which enables a stable connection to other wagons, even if the model does not have a close coupling link.

The direction of travel-dependent light change in white offers a realistic representation that makes the model look alive. The high quality of workmanship and the attention to detail make this locomotive a special model on any Era VI layout.
