Prototype: German State Railroad (DR) steam locomotive with a tender, road number 44 9612-1 (2-10-0 design) with a type 2´2´ T 24 tub-style tender for powdered coal. The locomotive looks as it did around 1974. Use: Heavy freight and passenger trains.The class 44 was built from 1926 to 1949 and is thereby one of the standard design locomotives built over the longest period of time. A total of almost 2,000 units were built. In Germany the legendary 44"s formed the backbone of heavy freight train service for many years. In addition, they were in use in several European countries. A locomotive with tender ready for service weighed a proud 185 metric tons. The technically challenging three-cylinder running gear transferred the output of 2,000 horsepower to the rails.

Highlights

  • Tooling variation with a powdered coal tender.
  • Metal construction.
  • Motor with a bell-shaped armature and a flywheel.
  • Steam locomotive sound.
  • Running gear lights.
  • Flickering firebox lights.

Product description

Model: The locomotive is a tooling variation. The locomotive and tender are constructed of die-cast metal. The locomotive has a motor with a bell-shaped armature and a flywheel, built into the boiler. 5 axles powered through side rods. Traction tires. The locomotive has a built-in mfx/DCC digital decoder and a sound generator. There is a close coupling between the locomotive and tender. Warm white LEDs are used for the dual headlights, running gear lights, and cab lighting. The locomotive has flickering firebox lights by means of processor-controlled LEDs (red/orange). The dual headlights work in analog operation. The tender has an NEM coupler pocket on the end. The smoke box door can be opened.
