ESU 31040

Due to the ESU LokSound V4.0 M4 decoder running a diesel rail car like the VT 69 is pure pleasure. The decoder can automatically register with Märklin® and ESU central units / command stations. Due to the integral PowerPack the old-timer diesel rail car moves smoothly even at low speeds and on dirty track. 

Besides the realistic diesel sound one can hear the squeal so typical for rail vehicles passing turnouts or going through tight curves. Of course, these diesel cars have an integral smoke generator producing the exhaust fumes synchronised to load and speed by the LokSound decoder. This model facilitates all prototype lighting options.

Directional lighting can be turned off at the end were trailers are coupled. Lighting for shunting mode and the train end signal Zg2 valid until the 1950-ies have been realised. Cab lighting also works subject to direction of travel. Of course, the H0 personnel sorting the freight enjoy proper lighting at their work places in the freight compartment.
