Translated Description from PIKO: New for 2023: Variant of the NoHAB diesel locomotive as My 1125 in the STRABAG Santa Fe design in Era V. The "NoHAB" is undoubtedly one of the most striking diesel locomotives on European tracks. This is an offshoot of the legendary F series by the US manufacturer EMD, which was built by the Swedish licensee Nydqvist och Holm AB, or "NoHAB" for short, from 1954. Due to the liberalization of the European rail transport market, numerous locomotives found new fields of work with private companies in Germany and some are still in commercial use today. One can argue about taste, but there are things whose elegance is beyond any doubt. The PIKO models of the NoHAB can also benefit from the undisputed elegance of the model. Great importance was attached to details in order to achieve this overall impression. The ventilation grilles on the side are designed as strongly structuring elements of the locomotive body with fine etched parts and are an absolute eye-catcher. But the striking front windows and the side "portholes" also contribute to the excellent picture thanks to the perfectly flush fit. The impression is completed by the precise and highly detailed design of the bogies. A powerful and smooth-running motor with two flywheel masses serves as the drive. Various lighting functions and the robust sound of the sound versions ensure varied operation on the system.
