The prototype: The class 95 of the Deutsche Reichsbahn

The class 95, also known as the "Mountain Queen", was specially developed for use on demanding routes with steep gradients. These powerful tank locomotives were built between 1922 and 1924 and were characterized by their enormous tractive power and versatility. The 95 021 locomotive, a coal-fired version, was equipped with a modernized sandbox to further improve traction. In Era III, it was one of the most important vehicles of the Deutsche Reichsbahn and is a symbol of the engineering skills of the time.

Era III: Reconstruction and innovation at the Deutsche Reichsbahn

Era III (1945-1970) was a phase of reconstruction and technical modernization. The Deutsche Reichsbahn carried out many adaptations and improvements to its vehicles in order to make operations more efficient. The 95 021 steam locomotive was modernized during this time, which can be seen, among other things, in the revision of the sandbox and the optimization of its operating characteristics.
