About the ST44 locomotive:

The ST44, known in Poland as “Gagarin,” is a heavy-duty diesel locomotive built in the USSR by the Lugansk Locomotive Works. First introduced in the 1960s, these locomotives became a mainstay of PKP’s freight operations on non-electrified lines.

Recognized for their distinctive shape, deep engine rumble, and robust construction, ST44s played a major role in Polish railway logistics for decades. In Era V, many were modernized and repainted in PKP Cargo’s updated livery.

This PIKO model faithfully captures the proportions and aesthetic of the real locomotive and is an essential addition to any modern Polish railway layout.
