Prototype: German Railroad (DB AG) class 101 express locomotive. Painted traffic red as a traction loco for the ICE express train passenger cars that were formerly Metropolitan passenger cars (MET). Locomotive road number 101 131-1. The loco looks as it did around 2015.

Highlights

  • Centrally mounted motor, all 4 axles driven.
  • The engineer’s cab lighting and long-distance headlight are digitally controllable.
  • World of Operation mfx+ decoder with extensive light and sound functions.
  • Different loco road number than in the Metropolitan train set, item 26931.
  • Loco end 2 has a 2-pole current-conducting coupler as a connection to the ICE express train passenger car set, item 42930.

Model: The loco has an mfx+ digital decoder and extensive sound functions. It also has a controlled, high-performance motor with a flywheel, centrally mounted. 4 axles powered through cardan shafts. Traction tires. Triple headlights and dual red marker lights change end with the direction of travel; work conventionally, and are digitally controllable. The long-distance headlights and cab lighting can be controlled separately in digital operation. The headlights at no. 1 and no. 2 ends can be turned off separately in digital operation. The loco has the “double A” light function. Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs are used for the lighting. A 2-pole coupling fitted into the NEM pocket at loco end 2 serves as an electrical connection to car 1 from the ICE express train passenger car set, item 42933. A normal close coupler head is fitted into the NEM pocket at loco end 1. Length over buffers 21.9 cm / 8-5/8".

This locomotive can only be fully used in conjunction with the ICE express train passenger car set, item 42930, due to the 2-pole current-conducting coupler between the loco and car. For technical reasons, this locomotive is not designed for use with different passenger or freight cars. To use the pickup shoe changeover feature between the class 101 and the two ICE express train passenger car sets, please refer to the instructions.
