The BR 52 of the Deutsche Reichsbahn are the most known Locomotives of the commonly named war Locomotives. At the outset of the post war projects there were 15000 Locomotives being planned for production but then in 1942, only 7.000 and more were built. The Locomotives were considered indispensable even after 1945 in many parts of Europe since they were used for reconstruction projects on a longterm basis. The oeBB had the most different variants of the series 52 in their vehicle fleet. The original model of the Fleischmann Locomotive features a prominent cab tender.
