TGV INOUI High-Speed Train

Model: The train is a 4-part set. Both power cars are motorized (M1 and M2). The train has an mfx+ digital decoder and extensive sound functions. There is a controlled high-performance motor in both powered end cars, centrally mounted. All 4 axles are powered by cardan shafts. Traction tires. Factory-installed interior lighting. The triple headlights and dual red marker lights change over with the direction of travel. They and the interior lighting will work in conventional operation and can be controlled digitally. The third headlight can be separately switched off digitally for the French light changeover (light function). Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs are used for the lighting. A buffer capacitor is fitted. Cabs in the powered end cars have interior details. Separately attached metal grab irons. The powered end car and transition cars are permanently coupled in pairs, with special close couplings and a guide mechanism. Additional guide mechanism in the Jakobs truck. The train has a power pickup feature whereby power is picked up from the pickup shoe in the powered end car at the front of the train. A continuous electrical connection through the entire train supplies the interior lighting with power. Each powered end car has 2 different single-arm pantograph designs, one with a slipper for the DB catenary and one with a slipper for the SNCF catenary. The pantographs work mechanically but are not wired to take power. The cars are a scale reproduction, which means the minimum radius for operation is 360 mm (14-11/64") with sufficient clearance on both sides.
Length of the 4-part set is 102 cm (40-5/32").
