Novelty 2023: Print variant of the Rh 1100 of the NS in Era IV. The
PIKO Expert model of the Dutch State Railways (NS) class 1100
impresses with successful mould construction, harmonious roof
curves and many applied parts, such as fine insulators and
pantographs, free-standing grab rails and stairs. The model has the
matching lamp moulds, sharply engraved bogie covers with realistic
spring pack reproductions and faithful reproductions of the buffer
planks. The lighting is done by LEDs. The cab and engine room
lights as well as the front and rear lights that work depending on
the direction of travel can be switched digitally with a PluX22

large, precisely balanced flywheel masses provide excellent driving
characteristics and high tractive forces. The model has a tidy
circuit board with PluX22 interface and is prepared for an
uncomplicated retrofit with sound decoder and large loudspeaker.
