Electric locomotives with rod drives are among the highlights of the model railway system. The often archaic exterior and the visible power transmission radiate the fascination of past railway epochs. PIKO captured this perfectly and transferred it to the scale 1:87. The constructive symbiosis of outstanding model conversion and excellent handling characteristics characterize the character of the newly developed PIKO E 91. The sharp engravings of the casing, coupled with a high-fine printing and garnished with extremely filigree current collectors make the locomotive a gem. It draws power from a strong PIKO motor, two finely balanced flywheel masses ensure continuous driving even in difficult track positions. A PIKO SmartDecoder 4.1 with matching vehicle sound and mfx functionality is installed ex works. Of course, the model has a light change in LED technology with red tail lights. Additional lighting functions can be switched thanks to the digital decoder.This text is machine translated.
