About the SU46 locomotive:

The SU46 is a versatile diesel-electric locomotive with electric train heating, designed to haul both passenger and freight trains. Built by H. Cegielski in Poznań between 1974 and 1978, only 52 units were produced. These locomotives served primarily on non-electrified lines in western and northern Poland.

Noted for their high power, reliability, and central driver's cab, the SU46 series became a staple of mixed traffic operations in Era V. Some locomotives were later modernized and remained in service well into the 21st century.

This PIKO model accurately reproduces the distinctive shape and livery of the SU46 from Era V and is a valuable addition to any collection focused on Polish rail history.
