Details

Experience premium European model railway engineering with the TRIX 16802 DB Class 280 Diesel Locomotive, a highly detailed N scale model representing one of Germany’s pioneering diesel-hydraulic locomotives. Finished in authentic Deutsche Bundesbahn livery as locomotive 280 005-0, this impressive model recreates the appearance of the prototype during the mid-1970s, when the Class 280 operated on light passenger and freight services across the West German rail network.

Factory-fitted digital technology includes an integrated mfx/DCC decoder and sound system, delivering realistic diesel locomotive sound effects and enhanced operational realism straight from the box. Directional LED lighting, precision detailing and close-coupling mechanisms make this locomotive ideal for modern European N scale layouts and collectors alike.

The model accurately captures the distinctive appearance of the DB Class 280 with finely moulded bodywork, detailed bogies and realistic cab proportions, making it an excellent addition to German Federal Railway themed layouts from Epoch IV.
