Piko H0 51183 H0 E- Loc E 44 001 of DB

The success story of the series E 44 began in 1930 with the series locomotive E 44 001 built by the Siemens Schuckerwerke, later 144 001-5, which was implemented as a large-scale model within the scope of this project. The thumbnails of the pre- as well as of the series locomotives impress through their exact to-scale conversion. Equally sharp and precise engraving at the housing provides for enormous plastic depth and underline the excellent overall impression. This is also continued in the area of the chassis with numerous extra placed parts at the distinctive bogies. Identical in the model quality, but the differences between the prototype locomotives were implemented in the greatest possible detail in the model. Even technically the model leaves nothing to be desired: The drive is both tried and tested as sturdy, a PluX22 interface makes it easy to retrofit a digital decoder. In this constellation, for example, the switching of engine room and cab lighting is possible. The variants, equipped ex-factory with a PSD XP sound decoder with vehicle sound, bring the typical "ratchet" of the triple bearing drive to the model railway.

The model carries the quality mark "fit mfx®". In order to ensure that digital decoders can be used reliably for all users of the current Märklin digital centers, a new quality mark "fit mfx®" was introduced together with Märklin and other manufacturers. This can only be used by digital decoders that have passed a special mfx® test.
These decoders and also the locomotives in which they are installed carry the quality mark "fit mfx®", which certifies the unrestricted mfx® functionality. This means that PIKO products with the "fits mfx®" logo now fully support the many and varied functions of mfx®.
