Spur N Lokdiesel MTU 12V mit Abgasturbolader / Scale N Diesel Engine MTU 12V with Exhaust Turbocharger for Locomotive

thingiverse

The MTU 12V TB11, a powerful diesel engine equipped with an exhaust turbocharger and mufflers, was specifically designed for N-scale model locomotives. Its twelve cylinders made it a significant upgrade to the previous TB10 engine, which had been used in the German Federal Railways' Class 218 series since the eighties. The introduction of new regulations led to the need for a replacement motor, and the MTU 12V TB11 became the go-to choice for locomotive manufacturers. As shown in the image, it can also be used as cargo, adding an extra layer of realism to model train layouts.
