PIKO 52738 - Sound rail bus 798 + control car 998.6 DB IV, including PIKO sound decoder

New in 2023: Variant of the BR 798 rail bus of the DB in Era IV. With the models of the legendary VT 98/VS 98 rail bus of the German Federal Railways, PIKO offers a vehicle with many highlights that is perfectly tailored to use on model railway main and branch lines. The illuminated train destination indicators on the side are a real eye-catcher. The railcar is powered by a powerful micro-engine, which is equipped with flywheels to ensure perfect running characteristics, and has a factory-installed buffer capacitor for optimal driving characteristics without sound interruptions. Railcars and control cars can be coupled to one another via current-conducting short coupling kinematics. The lighting functions of both vehicles, including the lamps above the driver's cabs, can be switched separately. Despite the design of the railcars and control cars, a clear view of the passenger compartments is possible. The railcar can also be used as a prototypical locomotive to carry individual freight wagons. For an optimal sound experience, the railcar has a PIKO sound decoder including speakers ex works.
