Model Details

Bring authentic construction and heavy haulage operations to your HO scale model railway with the Viessmann 8133 CarMotion Magirus Deutz 230 D 16 AK Three-Way Tipper Truck. Based on the rugged all-wheel-drive Magirus Deutz prototype, this highly detailed functional model is perfect for construction sites, quarry scenes, roadworks, infrastructure projects, and industrial layouts. The distinctive three-way tipping body makes it an ideal vehicle for transporting aggregates, spoil, and construction materials, adding realistic road traffic to any modern or period railway scene.

Part of the innovative CarMotion range, this model combines advanced infrared-controlled operation with realistic driving characteristics. The underfloor drive system leaves the load bed unobstructed while delivering smooth and reliable performance. Featuring realistic acceleration and braking behaviour, configurable speed settings, and a comprehensive lighting package, this Magirus Deutz tipper adds movement, realism, and operational interest to any HO scale layout.

The model is equipped with a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery providing approximately 4–6 hours of operation under normal running conditions and around 2 hours at maximum speed. Additional functions include cab lighting, brake lights, reversing lights, indicators, hazard warning lights, dipped and main beam headlights, and a visible driver figure. A 5-pole plug-in coupling allows connection to compatible CarMotion trailers and semi-trailers. The vehicle can be controlled via infrared signals, magnetic tape guidance, contact wire systems, permanent magnets, electromagnetic stop coils, and the CarMotion remote control. Convenient magnetic reed-switch operation enables easy switching on and off, while short-distance reversing is possible without mechanical guidance. An optional sound upgrade is available using sound module 8452.
