With the Piko 57870 BR 185 electric locomotive in the characteristic blue livery of Beacon Rail, PIKO brings a modern and powerful Era VI freight locomotive to your H0 DC layout. The model impresses with strong tractive power, fine detailing and high operational reliability - ideal for use in current rail freight traffic.
Versatile electric locomotive with a modern look
The prototype of the class 185 is one of the most used electric locomotives in Germany with over 400 units produced. In the model, the locomotive comes in the striking Beacon Rail livery with sharp-edged printing, finely engraved details and an engine driver figure in the driver's cab - a real highlight on any layout.
Digitally prepared with sound option
The locomotive has an NEM 652 interface for easy digitization and is prepared for sound retrofitting. This allows it to be individually upgraded and adapted to your digital control system.
Technically reliable for everyday use
With a clearance of 217 mm, a minimum radius of 358 mm and NEM shafts, the locomotive is compatible with common H0 systems. Two traction tires ensure reliable traction, and the direction-dependent light change in white/white ensures a prototypical appearance when running.
