PIKO 21683 - Sound electric locomotive BR 191 DB Italia VI AC version, including PIKO sound decoder

Novelty 2024: The BR 193 “Vectron” in the design of DB Italia Epoch VI. With the Vectron, PIKO delivers a high-precision model that has numerous extras based on a solid die-cast zinc frame and features proven PIKO standards. The tried and tested PIKO motor with two large flywheels ensures excellent running characteristics. The tractive force of the locomotive, which is driven on all four axles, is increased by two traction tires that sit diagonally to one another on the internal axles of both bogies. The headlights and taillights are illuminated via LEDs whose red or white changes with the direction of travel. The externally elegant appearance of this model includes an exactly reproduced technical “roof landscape” and carefully detailed bogies with prototypical wheel disc profiles. To control the digital and sound functions, the model has a PSD XP sound decoder with the largest possible loudspeaker ex works.

The model bears the “fits mfx®” quality mark. In order to make digital decoders reliably usable for all users of the current Märklin digital centers, a new quality mark “fits mfx®” was introduced together with Märklin and other manufacturers. This can only be used by digital decoders that have undergone a special mfx® test and have passed it completely.
These decoders and the locomotives in which they are installed bear the “fits mfx®” quality mark, which indicates unrestricted mfx ® Functionality certified. This means that PIKO products with the “fits mfx®” logo now fully support the diverse functions of mfx®.
