Diesel locomotive class 245 of the Deutsche Bahn.

■ Finely detailed model with separately attached plug-in parts
■ Illuminated train destination display
■ Switchable headlight / tail light with contact plates

The class 245 locomotives were intended to replace the class 218 diesel locomotives, which were meanwhile looking rather outdated. The diesel-electric locomotives possess four diesel engines which drive four generators to produce electricity, which in turn feed the traction motors via the power converters.
