BR 44 Oel  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

BR 44 had been the most successful steam loco for heavy freight trains at the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG). Between 1926 an end of WWII 1989 units of the 3 cylindred 2-10 had been built. They developed 1919 HP and reached a maximum speed of 80 km/h. In the 1950s Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) and Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) rebuilt 36 (DB) and 95 (DR) with oil firing equipment.

E44/BR144 / E44.5/BR144.5  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

In 1932 German Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG received 1st of 174 samples of four-axle electric loco E44. The four motors delivered 2200 kW and enabled the E44 to reach a maximum speed of 90 km/h. The reliable locos rested in service at DB until 1985, last DR locos quitted service in 1991. For electric service on Bavarian mountain line Freilassing – Berchtesgaden DRG ordered eight samples of electric E44.5. The four-axle four-motor loco developed 2000 kW and reached a maximum speed of 90 more…

BR 442 / Talent 2  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

In 2008 Talbot started delivery of electric regional railcar Talent 2 (numbered as BR 442). The manufacturer offers the railcars in different length up to a maximum tractive power of 4040 kW of a six-car unit. In any composite configuration each of the 325 railcars is able to reach a maximum speed of 160 km/h.

BR43 Einheitslok DRG DR  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

In order to determine the suitability of the different drives for heavy freight service, the German Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG included five-coupled tender locomotives with two and three cylinders in its standard locomotive program. In 1927, ten of each type were initially built. A further 35 of the 43 with two cylinders followed in 1928. In comparison, the two-cylinder locomotive proved to be equal to the three-cylinder locomotive known as the 44 series up to the medium power range more…

BR38.10-40 / Pr. P8  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

The Prussian P8, built from 1906, was perhaps the best-known German steam locomotive series. Its designer Robert Garbe even wanted to see it used in express train service, but approval for 110 km/h failed due to its rough running at high speeds. The 1,180 hp two-cylinder locomotives reached 100 km/h and were considered undemanding and reliable pulling horses for passenger trains. They also proved their worth in front of light and fast freight trains. Of the 3,444 examples that were built for more…

T9.3 pr. BR 91.3-18, 91.20  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

In the 1890s, the Prussian state railway KPEV purchased two differently designed tank locomotives for mixed passenger and freight service. The experience gained with the two types, grouped together under the T9 series designation, resulted in the design of the 1’C locomotive T9.3 in 1900. More than 2,200 of the 440 hp two-cylinder wet steam locomotive were purchased. The frugal 65 km/h locomotive was satisfactory for branch line passenger and freight trains, but was also suitable for more…

BR Standard Class 7  LokSound 5 European Sound files N XL L M4

Debuting in 1951 the BR Standard Class 7 had been one of the most famous classes of British steam locomotives. The two cylinder locos reached a maximum speed of 144 km/h and were used till 1966. 70000 “Britannia” and 70013 “Oliver Cromwell” are preserved and power fan trip trains. F14: engine driver dialogue selectable via CV168 value 0-4 (random/specific)
F27: rail clank (4 x different selectable via SV10 value 0 to 3)
F23: doors open/close selectable via CV167 value 0-1 (passenger door/cab more…

BR 58.30 DR Umbaulok  LokSound 5 European Sound files 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…
