PIKO TT 47807 Diesel Locomotive Vectron BR 247 DB Cargo

This TT scale diesel locomotive is a detailed model of the Vectron BR 247 operated by DB Cargo. It features a powerful drive with four driven axles and two traction tires, ensuring reliable pulling power on gradients and curves down to a radius of 310 mm. The direction-dependent LED lighting changes between white and red, adding realism to both forward and reverse operation.

Advantages

The locomotive is equipped with a PluX22 digital interface, allowing easy installation of a decoder for digital operation. The NEM shaft with close coupling kinematics ensures realistic spacing between cars and smooth operation on tight curves. The metal chassis provides stability and weight for excellent track adhesion.
