All Lenz 0-gauge locomotives set standards in equipment, functionality, and authenticity and feature a mixed metal/plastic construction, a high-performance motor, automatic couplings, constant headlights, direction-dependent headlight changes, spring buffers, metal wheelsets, a wheel flange height of less than 1.2 mm, and automatic detection of Lenz Digital (DCC) or conventional DC operation (analog).
When operating with Lenz Digital, the following additional functions are available: load control with particularly good slow-speed characteristics, adjustable acceleration and braking deceleration, USP - uninterrupted signal processing, ABC - automatic brake control, RailCom - bidirectional communication, remote-controlled coupling, remote-controlled original sound, separately switchable front and rear headlights, switchable cab lighting, switchable taillights, and remote-controlled pantographs.

Lenz has been active in the field of model railways for over 30 years. Many of the technologies for model railway control that are taken for granted today are developments from the house of Lenz. The so-called DCC format for the digital control of model railways of all sizes is used worldwide and is thus the most widely used control system of all, declared a standard by the NMRA in 1993.
But even before the development of this digital control system, Lenz had already set milestones for the model railway enthusiast, for example with the "REPA Lok-Aus" and the legendary "Teichmann controller". Lenz is constantly working on making the occupation with model railways more interesting, more varied, but also easier: USP ensures uninterrupted data transmission into the decoder even when power is interrupted from the track, ABC ensures pinpoint stops in front of signals, RailCom delivers information from the locomotive back to the digital system.
Lenz's entry into 0 gauge has not only been well received by "veteran" zero gauge enthusiasts, but has also inspired numerous model railway enthusiasts to enter/with this great gauge. Lenz is continuously expanding its programme here as well, but still attaches great importance to the greatest possible faithfulness to the prototype, exceptional technology and high quality standards.
