In 1939 German Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG received 1st of more than 3100 samples of 2-10-0 two-cylinder steam loco BR 50. The loco developed 1625 HP and reached a maximum speed of 80 km/h. With its axle load of just 15,2 tons the locos were used even on branch lines with light weight rails. Locos of DB quitted service in 1977, the DR locos were used for ten more years.

In 1957 German State Railway (DB) introduced it’s most powerful member of the so called “Einheits” electro locomotive family. The massive six axle six motor locomotives delivered 4500 kW and reached a maximum speed of 100 km/h. In 2003 last remaining 150 quitted service, but two locos are preserved in DB Museum.

In the mid-1950s, the boilers of the BR50 standard locomotives of the Deutsche Reichsbahn DR had reached the end of their service life due to the use in heavy freight traffic. Since the DR was unable to obtain replacements for its 50s, which were universally applicable with an axle load of just 15 t, in the foreseeable future, it was decided to reconstruct many locomotives with a boiler largely equivalent to that of the new BR 23 locomotive. From 1957, the DR reconstructed a total of 208 more…
Henschel-BBC DE2500/BR202 DB LokSound 5 European Sound files
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.
BR Class 150 LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
Between 1984 and 1987 British Rail BR of England received 137 samples of diesel hydraulic railcars Class 150. Cummins 6 cylinder Diesel engine (213 kW at 2100 rpm) enalbles the raicars to speed up to 121 km/h.
Different starting processes can be selected with F1: 1x press button = warm start / press button 2x = false start / press button 3x = cold start
F2 slows down the locomotive slowly.
F5 enables the heavy load mode: The diesel notch is always one up compared with normal operation. If more…

BR01-DRG-DB-DR LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
The 01 series was the first locomotive in the standard locomotive program of the German Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG. 231 samples were put into service between 1925 and 1937. The 2240 hp two-cylinder locomotive reached 120 km/h with 800 mm wheelsets in the front bogie, and 130 km/h with the 1000 mm wheels installed from locomotive number 01 102. The 01 were indispensable in express train service on both German state railways, which is why the DB 50 and the DR 35 locomotives were modernized and, more…

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…
BR 52 Kondenstender DRB LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
From 1942 the class 52 was derived from the light but powerful class 50 goods train tender locomotive developed from 1937 and mass-produced from 1939. Despite numerous simplifications, the war locomotive with 1640 hp had the same performance as the 50 and also reached 80 km/h when driving forwards. Initially, smoke deflectors were also dispensed with, but after a short time smaller Witte plates were retrofitted compared to the 50. So that the locomotives could withstand the winter in the more…
