Scale: H0 1:87
A BookNook is a small diorama that you can display in a bookshelf between your books, for example as a bookend. BookNooks have been a very popular topic for a while. In a relatively short construction time, you can create and enjoy a beautiful diorama in a space-saving way.
The BookNook offers the book lover a suitable change in the bookshelf. This kit is even suitable for model building beginners thanks to the detailed step-by-step operating instructions.
A special highlight is the selected 1:87 scale, which is also known as H0 in the model iron scene. The buildings, accessories and the bridge are kept to this familiar scale. This enables the optimal use between railway and model railroad books and magazines, but also the use of other accessories in this gauge.
The kit offers all the necessary parts to build a complete BookNook, but still has enough options to detail the diorama according to your own taste. The entire model is Made in Germany.
The kit contains components for:
- 2 laser cut half-relief half-timbered houses
- 1 laser cut half-relief viaduct
- 1 small half-relief wall
- Street with sidewalks
- Lighting box for individual lighting of the windows
- HDF for the box
- Background images
- Printed sheet with curtains
- 2 lanterns with LED lighting (supplied without resistor)
- Instructions (10 pages)
Please use a suitable adhesive for assembly. We recommend our Modellbahn Union universal adhesive A10000.
Please note that the images show accessories that are not included.
Would you like to build the BookNook exactly as shown in the pictures? Then you still need the following products:
- Märklin 36871 or another locomotive from our range
- Preiser 14037
- Preiser 14038
- Preiser 28038
We used the following Noch products for the winter design:
- Still 08758
- Still 08750

2-part Spanish regional train TRD 594
The motor vehicle and control vehicle must each be equipped with a Next18 decoder for digital operation.
The Renfe series 594 or TRD (Tren Regional Diesel) is a series of diesel trains specially designed for regional transport. This series was put into operation at the end of the 90s and improved regional traffic on non-electrified railway lines with a top speed of 160 km / h and much more modern equipment than the old series 592 and 593, as well as their successors to the old 597 series, which since Retired in 1995 and which is very similar in terms of the number of cars and seats
The 594 series is based on the Danish IC3 train developed by ABB Scandia, a company that was later acquired by Adtranz. IC3 trains operate in Denmark (since 1990), Israel and Sweden. The main difference to these is that the originals are built as Motor-Trailer-Motor (MRM) and are articulated (they share the bogie at the intersection of the cars).
The Spanish version was made in Spain under license from CAF. Its main feature is its pneumatic front, which allows the trains to be easily coupled. The cabin is foldable and allows full communication between the coupled trains as if it were one unit. In contrast to earlier regional trains, half of the seats are firmly aligned in each direction.

The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA was specially developed for installation in N gauge vehicles of the Kato USA brand: In most of this manufacturer's diesel locomotives based on the American model, this decoder is installed instead of the standard analog circuit board. Finally, these models can easily be retrofitted with a LokSound decoder.
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA with its dimensions of 60.0mm x 10.1mm is a pure DCC decoder and is delivered without loudspeakers.
Modes of operation
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA is a "thoroughbred" DCC decoder. 14 to 128 speed steps are as natural as 2 and 4-digit addresses. Up to 32 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoders log on to a suitable digital center fully automatically.
It masters all DCC programming modes and, thanks to RailCom®, the CV values on the main track can be read out with suitable central units. Auxiliary registers exist for central units that can only program CVs from 1-255.
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking sections as well as ZIMO® HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake modules or with direct voltage is also possible. It also stops with a Selectrix® braking diode. An ABC automatic shuttle train enables automatic commuting between two train stations. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA can be used on analogue direct current railways.
The decoder switches between the operating modes fully automatically "on-the-fly". Usually nothing needs to be adjusted.
Sound
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder can play back up to 12 channels at the same time. Each channel can be resolved with up to 16 bit / 31250 kHz and offers HiFi quality on your system. There is practically no difference to the original. A Class-D audio power amplifier with an output power of up to 3W controls the loudspeakers, which can have an impedance of between 4 and 32 ohms. A 128 Mbit sound memory ensures sufficient capacity.
The volume of all individual noises can be adjusted individually. The super-flexible sound engine without a rigid schedule enables prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail vehicles.
Functions The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA is equipped with an enormous number of function outputs despite its compact dimensions. Two directly soldered SMD LEDs are provided for the front and rear lighting. For older models, two wired LEDs can alternatively be soldered in and switched separately. In addition, three additional reinforced function outputs are available. All important light functions are available. The brightness of each output can be adjusted separately.
Engine control
The motor control of the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA has a variably adjustable PWM clock frequency of 10kHz to 50kHz, which ensures super-quiet operation, especially with bell-armature motors - the typical "hum" is a thing of the past. The load control can also be adapted to difficult cases with up to 10 CVs. The unique "Autotune" function enables the decoder to be automatically calibrated to the motor. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder supplies up to 0.75A motor current.
Operational safety
On request, a PowerPack can be connected to the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA to bridge dirty rail sections.
protection
Of course, the outputs are protected against overload. We want you to enjoy your decoder for as long as possible.

The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA with its dimensions of 60.0mm x 10.1mm is a pure DCC decoder and is delivered without loudspeakers.
Modes of operation
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA is a "thoroughbred" DCC decoder. 14 to 128 speed steps are as natural as 2 and 4-digit addresses. Up to 32 functions can be triggered. Thanks to RailComPlus®, the decoders log on to a suitable digital center fully automatically.
It masters all DCC programming modes and, thanks to RailCom®, the CV values on the main track can be read out with suitable central units. Auxiliary registers exist for central units that can only program CVs from 1-255.
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder recognizes the Märklin® braking sections as well as ZIMO® HLU / ZACK commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake modules or with direct voltage is also possible. It also stops with a Selectrix® braking diode. An ABC automatic shuttle train enables automatic commuting between two train stations. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA can be used on analogue direct current railways.
The decoder switches between the operating modes fully automatically "on-the-fly". Usually nothing needs to be adjusted.
Sound
The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder can play back up to 12 channels at the same time. Each channel can be resolved with up to 16 bit / 31250 kHz and offers HiFi quality on your system. There is practically no difference to the original. A Class-D audio power amplifier with an output power of up to 3W controls the loudspeakers, which can have an impedance of between 4 and 32 ohms. A 128 Mbit sound memory ensures sufficient capacity.
The volume of all individual noises can be adjusted individually. The super-flexible sound engine without a rigid schedule enables prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail vehicles.
Functions The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA is equipped with an enormous number of function outputs despite its compact dimensions. Two directly soldered SMD LEDs are provided for the front and rear lighting. For older models, two wired LEDs can alternatively be soldered in and switched separately. In addition, three additional reinforced function outputs are available. All important light functions are available. The brightness of each output can be adjusted separately.
Engine control
The motor control of the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA has a variably adjustable PWM clock frequency of 10kHz to 50kHz, which ensures super-quiet operation, especially with bell-armature motors - the typical "hum" is a thing of the past. The load control can also be adapted to difficult cases with up to 10 CVs. The unique "Autotune" function enables the decoder to be automatically calibrated to the motor. The LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA decoder supplies up to 0.75A motor current.
Operational safety
On request, a PowerPack can be connected to the LokSound 5 micro DCC Direct Kato USA to bridge dirty rail sections.

Artitec
Artitec kits consist of resin and photo-etched parts. In the packaging you will find cast resin parts. This material is sometimes a little roughened and needs to be rubbed off or trimmed, so we recommend having a sharp scalpel knife and some sandpaper ready. The resin is not painted and can be painted with Humbrol or Revell enamel paints. The small details are made from fine photo-etched parts.
Yours sincerely
