Jim Miller Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Soon to be released in U.S. and it is manufactured in Germany. The street price seams to be $560 and it looks to be well made and detailed....................Jim http://www.gscalenews.com/2013/10/25/piko-br-64-roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman4449 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 This will be interesting to see. Glad to see some new product coming to market You thinking of getting one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Miller Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 Yes, I am considering one...............Jim The Piko TEE got a lot of attention at this years York train show. It sells for $719 and includes both locomotives and one coach. I don't own any Piko items but I have my eye on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markoles Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Hey, did you two notice there appears to be a universal driving the third axle? That's how they're getting it around a 2' radius curve. I really like the look of this locomotive. The lighting is interesting, too. Nice lights on the running gear, good for night runs...

Rayman4449 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I agree Mark I like the use of the driver lighting which does make for far more interesting night time running. My Challenger is the only engine I've done that to and it looks cool running at night. Hope it's a good seller in the states, it looks very smooth running.

markoles Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 It would be interesting to see if they adapt this chassis to an american looking boiler. Could do either a large mogul or a prairie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
