This advanced sound system provides realistic engine sounds, including start-up, running, and shut-down sequences, as well as horns and other sounds. The sound can be customized using the included ESU LokSound V4.0 decoder.

The locomotive is powered by a five-pole skew wound motor, ensuring smooth and powerful operation. It is equipped with knuckle couplers, allowing it to easily connect to other train cars. The wheels are equipped with RP-25 metal wheelsets, providing excellent traction and operation on both curved and straight tracks.
