The PIKO model of the class 74 of the SNCB is based on the technological design of the V 60 of the DR, in particular on the tried and tested drive concept of the D-coupler. The sturdy, die-cast zinc frame, in combination with the motor and a precisely designed flywheel mass, provides for sensitively controllable with very high tractive effort. Constructively, the model corresponds to #96466 in its other features. The factory-installed PIKO sound decoder 4.1 of the latest generation handles the data formats DCC with RailComPlus®, Motorola®, Selectrix® and is mfx-capable. The built-in speaker is precisely tuned to the locomotive type. Many locomotive-typical sounds such as engine noise, signal horns, brake squeal, and other switchable functions can be called up individually. With adjustable individual mapping for up to 44 functions. The tail light can be switched separately. Sound is also possible in analog mode - only engine noise. Brake hoses for optional upgrade for display case use are included.
