New 2022: There is no arguing about taste, but there are some things whose elegance is beyond doubt. The new PIKO models of the NoHAB can also benefit from the undisputed elegance of the prototype. To get this overall impression, great attention has been paid to details. The side vents are designed as strongly structuring elements of the locomotive body with finely etched parts and are an absolute eye-catcher. But the striking side windows at the front and the “portholes” on the side also contribute to the outstanding image through their perfectly recessed fit. The impression is completed by the precise and highly detailed design of the bogies. A powerful and smooth-running motor with two flywheels serves as propulsion. Various lighting functions and the gritty sound of the sound versions provide for varied model railway operation. The SNCB Class 52 model already has a suitable PluX22 sound decoder in the sound version at the factory.”
