Brawa 40118 - Steam Locomotive G 4/5 H K.Bay.Sts.B. (sound)

Steam Locomotive G 4/5 H K.Bay.Sts.B. Road no. 5617 From 1915 onwards, Maffei started manufacturing G 4/5 H class locomotives. This locomotive was the largest, most powerful and most modern German locomotive with this wheel arrangement. The G 4/5 H corresponded to the Maffei construction principles. It had a slanting four-cylinder engine combined with a filigree underframe. The boiler, which operated on the basis of the relatively new superheated steam process that was developed by Schmitt, was extremely efficient. Thanks to the balanced four-cylinder engine, a maximum speed of 60 km/h could easily be attained despite the compact 1,270 mm size of the driver wheels. The locomotive had considerable tractive power and was able to pull 1,000 t on an 11 % incline at 18 km/h.

Model: Extra mounted steps, true-to-scale axle box cover, close-coupling, true-to-scale underframe, extra mounted metal handrails, fully functionning drive train, tender body, boiler and chassis in die-cast zinc, epoch-typical light.
