The BRAWA Exclusive Edition Class 216 diesel locomotive represents one of the German Federal Railways' successful V160 family main line diesel locomotives. Designed in 1956 as a single-engine diesel locomotive for passenger and freight services on non-electrified routes, the V160 series was constructed by Krupp, Henschel, Krauss-Maffei and Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz (KHD). Following the German Federal Railways' renumbering programme in 1968, the V160 was redesignated as Class 216.
This finely detailed N Scale model features an Orient Red plastic body with the German Federal Railways logo and white vehicle numbering. As part of the BRAWA Exclusive Edition range, it faithfully reproduces the distinctive appearance of the prototype with finely applied lettering and smooth running performance.
