Piko N 2016 New Items![]() MATT LOVELL looks at what is due for release in 2016 from Piko in N Scale. PIKO is one of the key continental brands that we stock here at Gaugemaster, and spans four different scales; N, TT, HO and G. For this article I will be concentrating on the new items to be released in the N Scale range and highlighting a few locomotives and rolling stock which should be popular with lots of Continental modellers. Locomotives![]() BR118 Electric Locomotive (PK40305, PK40306) The class E18 was designed and built in the mid 1930s for use on the busy European freight routes. Between 1935 and 1939 a total of 61 locomotives were created for this class. Most of these locomotives were sold off after the Second World War the majority of them going to the Deutsche Bundesbahn and a few were split between the Deutsche Reichsbahn and the Österreichische Bundesbahnen. These models feature twin traction tyres, directional lighting and a Plux16 decoder socket. These models are available in the different liveries used for this class including OBB, DRG and DB. ![]() Series 1225 Electric Locomotive (PK40460, PK40461) The NS1225 was designed in 1951 and entered service until 1998. These locomotives were often seen hauling heavy freight and passenger trains across the Netherlands. The new model of the series 1225 features directional lighting, twin traction tyres and a Plux12 decoder socket. It also features detailed etched parts and extra detail on the bogie frames. ![]() Series 2218 Diesel Locomotive (PK40418) The NS2218 is the latest design in the NS22 series. These locomotives were often seen hauling light freight all over the Netherlands. This model is fitted with etched handrails, detailed bogie frames and additional body details. It is also fitted with a fly wheel, traction tyres and a Plux16 decoder socket. ![]() Ae 3/6 Electric Locomotive (PK40322, PK40323) The Ae 3/6 locomotives were produced in the 1920 for use on the steep inclines in Switzerland. These locomotives where used for mixed services and were able to haul quite heavy services up gradients of 12%. The models are fitted with a fly wheel, LED lighting and movable pantographs. A stunning model which will prove to be popular with any Swiss railway enthusiast. Multi Units![]() HondeKop (PK40481) The Hondekop is a very popular item with most modern era continental modellers as they could be seen almost anywhere in the Netherlands. This model is the latest addition to the series and is fitted with electrical couplings, interior LED lighting and movable pantographs which can be set in either flat or extended positions. These models are ready for a Plux16 decoder and loud speaker system for ultimate realism. ![]() Talant Abellio (PK40205) The Talent Abellio is part of the train sets manufactured by Bombardier in 2008 and entered service in 2011 with the Deutsche Bahn. These sleek commuter trains can now be seen travelling all over Europe. This particular model is based on the Talent 2 Albellio which entered service in December 2015 and is fitted with interior lighting, twin flywheels and directional head and tail lights. ![]() VT98 Rail Cars (PK40251, PK40252) The VT98 railcars are now available in both OBB Blue/Cream and in DB Red. These models are fitted with directional lighting, DCC Plux16 sockets ready for a Plux16 Decoder and switchable interior lighting. ![]() ET440 4 Car EMU (PK40274) Another multi-unit that has been announced is the ET440 in DB Regio livery. This 4 Car unit is fitted with red and white LEDs which change with direction of the unit, Interior lighting and electrical couplings. Rolling Stock![]() Low Loader Wagons (PK40700, PK40701) New to the Piko N scale range of wagons is the finely detailed low loaders. These wagons are used primarily for transporting vehicles around, which can be found in the Wiking range. A superb addition to the range. ![]() Coach for BR624 (PK40692) After the success of the BR624 Multi Unit, Piko have produced an additional coach which transforms your 3 Car Unit into a longer 4 Car DMU. This coach is 320mm long and can easily be fitted with interior lighting. So there we have it, a comprehensive range of N Scale items to keep any continental modeller happy! |
