PIKO 97503 - Sound-E-Lok Rh 1000 NS III AC version, including PIKO sound decoder

New in 2024: Despite technical deficits, the 1000 series locomotives were visually very appealing designs that still had a touch of the streamlined age. This fact was both an incentive and a challenge for the PIKO designers. The sides of the elongated electric locomotive are structured by the finely engraved fan grilles, with crystal-clear and perfectly flush engine room windows above them. The roof is characterized by a streamlined hood. A finely detailed chassis peeps out from under the long beam and rolls on extremely delicate spoked wheels. Technically, the PIKO model stands in clear contrast to the model: a solid drive ensures reliable pulling power. The lighting with numerous switchable functions uses LED technology. The heart of the system is a modern motherboard with a PluX22 interface. The model, which is factory-equipped with a PSD XP sound decoder and has a large loudspeaker, has numerous entertaining sound effects.

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®.
