Novelty 2026: The PIKO model of the T 679.2 locomotive is a prototype-accurate H0 model of this locomotive type. Typical features include the separately mounted handrails in front of the cabs and the “clean” roof. Although the T 679.2 is shorter than Class 132, it appears larger and more powerful in the model thanks to its lowered front skirts.

Prototype-oriented model railway enthusiasts will also appreciate the robust bogie detailing, which withstands the rigors of regular model railway operation. The motor, equipped with two flywheels, combined with the heavy die-cast frame and the elegant cardan shaft drive on four axles (two wheels with traction tires arranged diagonally), provides excellent running characteristics and high pulling power. As a model of the PIKO Expert line, the locomotive features close coupling mechanisms and a PluX16/22 digital interface. It is prepared for the addition of sound.
