PIKO 52882 - Sound diesel rail car VT 2.09 DR III, including PIKO sound decoder

With the newly designed model of the VT 2.09 of the DR, PIKO is responding to an often-mentioned wish of many model railroaders for a contemporary, detailed and operational version of the well-known piglet taxi. After developing the innovative control logic of the DB rail bus, for which PIKO received the Golden Track in 2017, it makes sense to now also implement the widespread counterpart from East Germany with great attention to detail. The railcar is powered by a powerful micro-engine that is equipped with flywheels to ensure perfect running characteristics and has a factory-installed buffer capacitor for optimal driving characteristics without sound interruptions. The drive acts on both axes. Railcars and control cars can be coupled to one another via current-conducting short coupling kinematics. The lighting functions of both vehicles can be switched separately, allowing a clear view of the passenger compartments. For example, the locomotive independently registers whether a control car is attached and then switches off the lighting between the vehicles. The factory-installed PIKO SmartDecoder 4.1 Sound for PluX22 of the latest generation supports the DCC data formats with RailComPlus®, Motorola® and Selectrix®. The built-in loudspeaker is precisely tailored to the rail bus. Many typical locomotive noises such as engine noise, horns, squealing brakes and other switchable functions can be accessed individually. With adjustable individual mapping. The taillight can be switched separately. Sound is also possible in analogue mode - only engine noise.
