BR 58.30 DR Umbaulok N XL L M4

With the five-coupled G12, the Prussian KPEV developed the first largely standardized steam locomotive series. These three-cylinder locomotives delivered 1540 HP and reached a maximum speed of 65 km/h and were delivered from 1917 onwards. After the Second World War, the majority of the locomotives, now designated Class 58.2-21, remained in what would later become the GDR. Since most of the more modern standard freight locomotives remained in the western occupation zones, the DR decided to more…

BR 78 / pr. T18 N XL L M4

In 1912 Prussian State Railway ordered the first of 462 samples of the 4-6-4 saddle tank loco T18. The two-cylinder loco developed 1140 HP and reached a maximum speed of 100 km/h. The locos were used for passenger trains on main and branch lines and stayed in service until 1974. SoundCV9 (CV163): train driver's dialogue (different languages selectable with value 0-1)

BR94.5 pr.T16.1 N XL L M4

Prussian T16.1 had been one of the most important steam locomotives for short freight and heavy switching duty. The two cylinder loco delivered 1070 HP and reached a maximum speed of 60 km/h. SoundCV9 (CV163): train driver's dialogue (different languages selectable with value 0-4) SoundCV10 (CV164): rail joints (4x different selectable with value 0-3) SoundCV11 (CV165): airpumps (different selectable with value 0-1) SoundCV15 (CV169): steam brake / riggenbach back pressure brake (selectable more…

BR 80 N XL L M4

In order to replace uneconomical old worn out locomotives in shunting service, the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG also included a shunting locomotive with an axle load of 18 t in the Einheitslok program. From 1928 the DRG put 39 copies of the 575 hp three-coupler into service. After the Second World War, 21 machines remained with the DR and 17 locomotives with the DB. Despite convincing operating characteristics, the DB stopped its 80 until 1965, as the new V60s were available in more…

Adler N XL L M4

Bavarian Railway Ludwigs-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft bought famous „Adler“ steam locomotive at British manufacturer Robert Louis Stephenson. The loco with its single-axle drive delivered 41 HP and reached a maximum speed of 65 km/h.

61 001 Stromlinien-Tenderlok N XL L M4

In 1935, the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG acquired the streamlined 61 001 to haul the famous Henschel-Wegmann train. The two-cylinder locomotive had an output of 1450 hp and reached a speed of 175 km/h. After the Second World War, the one-off remained with the DB, which used it to pull express trains after dismantling the engine cover before it suffered damage in 1951. As the DB no longer wanted to finance repairs to the locomotive, the machine was taken out of service in 1952, but was more…

BR 01.5 Rekolok DR N XL L M4

After the Second World War, the Deutsche Reichsbahn DR had 65 Class 01 locomotives. At the end of the 1950s, the DR included the indispensable 01 in its reconstruction program and from 1961 onwards equipped a total of 35 machines with new boilers, new pumps and, for the most part, new cylinders. By 1966, the majority of the 2240 hp, 130 km/h 01.5s had also been fitted with oil main firing, which made the powerful and reliable three-coupler very popular with the staff. It was only after the more…

BR62 DRG/DB/DR N XL L M4

The class 62 express tank locomotive was part of the standard locomotive program of the German Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG). The 1,680 hp two-cylinder locomotive was designed for service on short main routes where the idea was to avoid turning the locomotives in the terminal stations in favor of short turnaround times. The drive wheel diameter of 1750 mm was a good compromise for good acceleration and a top speed of 100 km/h. During the DRG era, the 15 locomotives proved their worth, for more…

Kittel Dampftriebwagen N XL L M4

In the early 1900s, several state and private railways attempted to reduce operating costs by using steam railcars on lightly used routes. The design of one of the most successful types was penned by Eugen Kittel. At one end of the vehicle was the standing boiler integrated into the driver's cab, the equipment required to operate it, the coal box and a seat for the conductor. A stoker with control authorization was allowed to drive the steam railcar. At this time, the conductor was in the more…

BR 96 bay. Gt 2x 4/4 N XL L M4

From 1913 onwards, the Bavarian State Railway purchased a total of 15 samples of the Gt 2x 4/4 Mallet tank locomotive to push heavy freight trains on the steep routes in the Franconian Forest and Thuringian Forest. Although the 1,470 hp eight-axle locomotives were considered the most powerful tank locomotives in Europe at the time, manufacturer Maffei was able to limit the maximum axle load to 15.5 t, which is why the powerful locomotives could even be used on branch lines. With various more…
