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.
BR86 DRG/DB/DR LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
The DRG's standard locomotive program called for the Class 86 for mixed service on branch lines. With an output of 1030 hp and a top speed of 70 km/h with an axle load of only 15.6 t, the 86 replaced many series that dated back to the state railway era. From the factory, 86 293-296 and all other locomotives from locomotive number 86 336 onwards were equipped with Krauss-Helmholtz frames for the leading and trailing axles, which meant that the maximum speed could be increased to 80 km/h.

BR89 /pr.T3 LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
Under the series designation T3, the Royal Prussian State Railroad KPEV combined a whole series of triple-coupled, slightly different freight locomotives. From 1882 about 1550 copies were made, some of which were also delivered to private railways that were later nationalized. The 290 PS strong and 40 km/h fast two-cylinder wet steam locomotives were popular due to their undemanding nature and managed the entire operation on many branch lines. After the maximum speed was no longer sufficient more…
BR98.3 PtL 2/2 Glaskasten LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
In the early 1900s, the Royal Bavarian State Railways wanted to rationalize operations on its less busy local railway lines by purchasing small locomotives suitable for one-man operation. The most successful was the PtL2/2 design submitted by Krauss, with 29 units built, which was popularly known as the Glaskasterl (Glass Box) due to its large driver's cab. Krauss delivered three locomotives to the Prussian KPEV also. Two further series of 13 units followed with identical boiler and cylinders, more…
BR 58 / pr. G12 LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
With the five-way coupled G12, the Prussian KPEV developed the first largely standardized steam locomotive series. The 1540 hp and 65 km/h three-cylinder locomotives were delivered from 1917. Because of its good operating characteristics, the Baden (98 units), Saxon (42) and Württemberg state railways (43) also procured the G12. After the Second World War, the majority of the machines, now designated as BR 58.2-21, remained in what was later to become the GDR. The fact that the locomotives had more…
T9.3 pr. BR 91.3-18, 91.20 LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
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 95 DRG/DR/DB pr.T20 LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
For service on steep grades prussian state railway (KPEV) ordered 45 samples of 2-10-2 steam locos T20. Successor DRG re-numbered them for 95.0. The locos delivered 1620 HP and reach a maximum speed of 65 km/h. The powerful locos were used for short line passenger and freight service. After WW II 14 locos were used by DB till 1958. DR rebuilt 24 samples with oil firing equipment and used them till 1981.

BR53-Kriegslok-DRG LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
In 1943, the operational sites in the Wehrmacht-occupied areas in the east demanded more powerful steam locomotives for the supply freight trains. Borsig submitted the design of a (1’C)D h4 with an axle load of 20 t. Although the powerful locomotive was not released beyond the project stage, model railway manufacturers took the 53 in H0 and I gauge as a model. The sound comes from an original Mallet locomotive that is similar in terms of drive technology to BR 53.
BR76 pr. T10-KPEV-DRG LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
To speed up express trains on the relatively short 41 km route between Frankfurt and Wiesbaden, the Prussian state railway KPEV had a new, powerful tank locomotive developed. The engineer responsible, Robert Garbe, decided to marry the slightly shortened chassis of the P8 (later BR 38.10-40) with the boiler of the P6 (BR 37.0-1) and thus created the T10. The twelve samples of the 880 hp, 100 km/h two-cylinder locomotive proved to be up to the task and were in service with the KPEV and DRG for more…
BR39 DB DR / Pr. P10 KPEV LokSound 5 European Sound files H0
For the heavy express train service in the hill country, the Prussian KPEV had a four-coupled three-cylinder locomotive developed instead of replicating the proven Saxon XX HV with four cylinders. Borsig's design was then implemented, although the required maximum axle load of 17 t was exceeded by almost 2 t, meaning the locomotive could only be used on a few routes. With its output of 1,620 hp, it reached a top speed of 110 km/h. When most of the main routes were upgraded for an axle load of more…
