Diesel locomotive SP 9101 "Modified": Historical accuracy and robust technology

The SP 9101 "Modified" diesel locomotive is a fascinating new product from PIKO for the 2025 model railway year. This model of the SP KM 4000 shows the locomotive as it was in the mid-1960s, with all its structural and color features. With its detailed implementation, robust technology and the possibility of digitalization, the SP 9101 is an enrichment for every H0 model railway layout.

The prototype: The SP KM 4000 and its transformation

The SP KM 4000 locomotives began their lives as almost identical triplets, but developed into individual machines through extensive modifications. The SP 9101 is characterized by specific adaptations such as side air intake grilles, filter boxes, roof vents and exposed exhaust systems with flap valves. Its characteristic color scheme makes it an unmistakable representative of this series.

PIKO: Precision and quality

The model of the SP 9101 impresses with its precise implementation of the structural features and the true-to-original color scheme. The finest engravings, realistic reproductions of the air intake grilles and a detailed roof design make this model a real highlight. The robust drive technology with balanced flywheel masses ensures smooth running characteristics and high reliability.

Design and equipment: Authentic and functional

The locomotive impresses with its realistic color scheme, which accurately reflects the special features of the SP 9101. The LED light functions change between white and red depending on the direction of travel and can be controlled digitally with a suitable decoder. The locomotive does not have an NEM coupling shaft, which makes its prototypical implementation even more authentic.

Technical highlights and retrofitting options

The SP 9101 is equipped with a NEM 658 PluX22 interface, which makes it easy to retrofit a PIKO sound decoder (item no. 56627). The powerful motor and the optimized drive concept ensure excellent running characteristics. With a minimum radius of 358 mm, the locomotive is versatile and suitable for a wide variety of track layouts.
