PIKO 50684 - Steam locomotive BR 03 DR III
Novelty 2023: A total of 298 standard express train locomotives of the 03 series were built for the Deutsche Reichsbahn between 1930 and 1938 for use on routes with a maximum axle load of 18 t. The last of the 86 partially reconstructed machines stationed at the DR were in use until 1979.
Arthur Honegger once dedicated a musical composition to the elegant Pacific steam locomotives. With the 03, such a machine rolls into the PIKO range. The high, slim boiler and the airy bar frame with a clear view also characterize the silhouette of the machine in the model. The delicate chassis with fine spokes and very plastic balancing weights looks particularly graceful. The new design has matching add-on parts such as bells, pumps and lamps. Numerous attached boiler pipes complete the external impression. The drive and flywheel housed in the tender ensure ideal driving characteristics. The factory digital versions of the model have switchable lighting in the engine and on the driver's cab, as well as a red flickering firebox. These functions can also be used by retrofitting a decoder on the PluX22 interface.
