Piko Exclusive Set 2026 - H0, Diesel locomotive DE 18 + 3x Fakks 127 "Leonhard Weiss", Era VI

The Piko 58160 exclusive set for the 2026 Open House combines a modern DE 18 diesel locomotive in the eye-catching Leonhard Weiss design with three matching Fakks 127 two-way tippers. This train set embodies modern construction site and freight traffic in Era VI and impresses with its high-quality workmanship, realistic printing and authentic color scheme.

Design & workmanship

The DE 18 diesel locomotive is designed in the striking yellow livery of the renowned construction company Leonhard Weiss. Fine printing, clean lines and a prototypical reproduction of the locomotive details ensure a realistic appearance. The three Fakks 127 two-way tippers are robustly constructed and have realistic engravings and authentic road numbers. The result is a perfectly coordinated construction site train that is both visually and technically impressive.

Technology & equipment

The set is designed for 2-wire direct current (DC) operation. The locomotive is analog, but is prepared for subsequent digital conversion. All of the vehicles are equipped with an NEM shaft and close coupler link, which enables safe operation and close car transitions. The running characteristics are excellent thanks to precise axles and solid workmanship.

Prototype & use

The DE 18 is a modern diesel-hydraulic locomotive from the manufacturer Vossloh that is used both in construction train service and in light freight service. In the service of the Leonhard Weiss construction company, it can be found on many routes in Europe, often together with bulk goods and dump cars for track construction. The Fakks 127 are typical wagons for transporting ballast, sand or building materials and are frequently used in track construction.

Compatibility & possible uses

The set is perfect for Era VI layouts and can be used in construction site, industrial railroad or branch line scenarios. Thanks to the universal coupling systems, the wagons can be easily integrated into other freight trains. The DE 18 is versatile and harmonizes perfectly with other modern private railway vehicles.

Purchase arguments & target group

This set is aimed at collectors and model railroaders who want to realistically represent modern freight trains or construction site trains. With its exclusive character, limited edition and high level of detail, the set is an attractive highlight for any H0 layout.
