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 running characteristics with very high tractive force. Power is drawn from all six wheels, two of which are equipped with traction tires. As a standard feature of the PIKO Expert series, the model has a light change adapted to the direction of travel white/red and a PluX interface for digital operation. The cab lighting can be switched on and off. The model has been prepared for easy retrofitting with sound. Handlebars and handrails are mounted free-standing. The filigree etchedRailings provide detailed prototypical fidelity.
