DE2500/BR202 DB (MAN) 
H0
The DB Class 202, also commonly referred to under its manufacturers' designation Henschel-BBC DE2500, since it was only in experimental use and never purchased by the DB, is a class of diesel-electric locomotives designed for use on main and secondary lines for both passenger and freight trains.

ÖBB 2048 H0
In 1991, the Austrian government decided to improve the passenger service on branch lines. The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) were unable to meet the increased demand for locomotives, which is why they were able to quickly purchase 15 examples of BR 211s that were no longer needed by the DB in order to free up ÖBB locomotives for passenger trains. The worn-out MTU diesel engines needed to be replaced, while the Voith transmissions, which were considered to be reliable, were retained in some more…
Universal Schmalspur H0
Most narrow-gauge railways were built and, at least initially, operated by private companies. The state railways usually coded the track gauge in the class designation, and sometimes also the wheel arrangement. The operating number was generally assigned consecutively. With the integration of many railways into the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG), the class designations, which consisted of letters and numbers (e.g., Tssd, IV k, or Gts 2x 3/3), were standardized and only numbers were more…
BR219 / V169 H0
In 1965 German DB ordered the first diesel hydraulic locomotive with additional gas turbine power. The V169 001 delivered 3200 HP and reached a maximum speed of 130 km/h. The gas turbine worked automatically when the engineer activated the booster notch while the diesel motor works in (highest) notch 15. In 1974 after around 9 years in heavy passenger service the now called 219 001 had a defective gas turbine so DB dismounted this booster and used the loco for 3 additional years.
BR210 H0
In 1970 the German DB built eight four axle diesel locomotives class 210 for heavy passenger service. The locos base on famous dieselhydraulic V160 series and reach a maximum speed of 160 km/h. The 210 had a MTU MA 12 V 956 TB 10 traction diesel motor and a separately shifted Avco Lycoming licensed gas turbine T 53-L 13. After two heavy defectives DB decided in 1978 to dismount the gas turbines. Till 2006 the locos were used as standard 218 and with the numbers 218 901-908.
DB BR420 H0
Since the three-car S-Bahn railcars were introduced for the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, the ET420 are often referred to as Olympic railcars. With the thyristor cut control, DB was breaking new technical ground at the time. Since the power of 2400 kW was transmitted to all twelve axles, the 420 equipped with a suspension drive showed very good acceleration. The three prototypes were followed by eight series, in which minor changes were incorporated. The last two series had swivel sliding more…
2 Zylinder Länderbahn H0
Two-cylinder locomotives were considered easier to drive and relatively undemanding compared to three- or four-cylinder locomotives. With the nationalization of the numerous privately financed railways in the 1880s, Prussia favored such locomotives because they could be repaired "in an East Prussian cowshed if necessary." It's no wonder, then, that two-cylinder locomotives accounted by far the largest production numbers. The G8.1 freight locomotive (BR 55.25-56), almost 5,000 of which were more…
Universal 2 Zylinder H0
Two-cylinder locomotives were considered easier to drive and relatively undemanding compared to three- or four-cylinder locomotives. Huge numbers of the standard freight train class 50 and the war locomotive 52, which was developed from it, were built, with more than 3,000 and more than 6,200 examples, respectively, running in almost all neighboring countries. It is therefore no surprise that the most-produced tank locomotives, by far the most produced, were the class 64 (520 units) and 86 (774 more…
BR120DR /V200DR/Taigatrommel H0
For heavy freight service East German Deutsche Reichsbahn DR ordered 378 samples of diesel electric locos V200 (later BR 120, from 1990 on classified as BR 220). The 14D40 2-stroke prime mover develops 1471 kW at 750 rpm. Maximum speed was 100 km/h. As the locos were very loud people nick-named them Taigadrum.
Different starting processes can be selected with F1:
1x press button = warm start / press button 2x = false start / press button 3x = cold start
Heavy load operation:
F5 - more…
