Novelty 2023: Paint variant of the ET41 PKP in Era IV design. The PIKO ET 41 embodies, like the large prototype, a clear, functionally reliable and low-maintenance design. As a double locomotive, the PIKO model consists of a vehicle segment with drive and a segment without drive. Thanks to the powerful engine with two precisely balanced flywheels and the cardan shaft drives on the two two-axle bogies, the PIKO ET 41 has very balanced running characteristics. The high dead weight in combination with the diagonal traction tyres of the inside running axles of the driven bogies ensures prototypically high tractive forces. Since also the four axles of the non-driven segment serve for current collection and both segments are connected via a current-carrying close coupling, the model has an extraordinarily safe current collection via a total of 16 wheels. The model has a PIKO sound decoder with matching loudspeaker ex works. As a special feature, switching to overhead line operation is possible.
