Translated Description from PIKO: Novelty 2020 - The V 160 and 216 series were the express locomotives for lines without contact wire in the Federal Railroad in the 1960s and 1970s. The redesign of this important vehicle type not only closes a gap in the Piko range, but will also enrich many model railroad systems from epochs III to V with numerous variants. The development team has implemented the striking shape of the prototype in outstanding quality in the model and at the same time achieved ideal driving characteristics. These attributes are underlined by the effective use of perfect engravings and a paintwork that is harmonious down to the smallest detail. Contemporary LED technology serves as the basis for the light change in red / white and the light functions that can be switched by retrofitting a digital decoder. The PluX22 digital interface is state-of-the-art according to NEM 658 standards, and a decoder can easily be attached. With the enclosed parts, the buffer screed of the vehicle can be completed in a prototypical manner.
