The DB-V60 is completely new as an ESU model! Chassis, body, engine, gearbox, chassis including intake, smoke unit, lighting, digital coupler, speakers and all details have been redeveloped. The lamp inserts have vertical engravings to match the look of DB unit lanterns.
The conversion from AC (factory setting) to DC operation is done by pulling off the center grinder and by switching over a small slide switch immediately in front of the front axle.
The digitally remotely controllable, electromagnetic coupler sits in a standard shaft, is two-level height adjustable and can be easily replaced if necessary, thanks to connectors without soldering or replaced by any coupling.
The newly designed smoke generator generates a larger amount of steam.

Completely new is the LokSound 5 decoder. Silky driving characteristics and a number of useful functions and adjustment options inspire the operator. For example, there is a Heavy Duty feature that doubles the acceleration and deceleration times and makes the engine sound at higher engine speeds. With the "locomotive brake", the locomotive goes into idle and slows down a little more - if necessary, to a standstill. In shunting, the locomotive accelerates and decelerates more than in normal operation.
