Piko H0 51632 H0 Rh 11442 electric locomotive of Austrian Federal Railways
Variant of Rh 1044 in the version as Rh 1144.2 of the Austrian Federal Railways in epoch VI. The model of Rh 1144.2 takes into account all the special features and details of the original. With the newly constructed PIKO 1044/1144, authentic models of the high serial numbers of this series will be available for the first time in 1:87. The characterful locomotive face of the former Austrian Federal Railways paradehorse was hit excellently in the model conversion, as well as the distinctive side section of the vehicles, which with the pronounced surrounds and the typical bull eyes posed quite challenges to the mold making. The resulting impression of ideal optical effect continues in the bogies of the locomotive. Last but not least, the new 1144 is technically convincing: A five-pole PIKO motor, on whose shaft two finely balanced flywheel masses sit, provides for an even propulsion. Model railway enthusiasts who prefer digital operation will benefit from the PluX22 SoundDecoder already installed in the factory in the sound version. The light change required today was realized like the attractive driver's cultillillumination in the latest LED technology. The lighting of the driver's cab, which is also available in the PIKO model and can be switched in digital mode, is not a matter of course.This text is machine translated.
