Brawa 40958 steam locomotive BR 01 der DB, Ep. III (digital with Sound) Product Details

Description

BRAWA presents an H0 model of the DB Class 01 steam locomotive with the road number 01 013 ED Karlsruhe; Offenburg depot. The locomotive impresses with many lovingly placed details and features, making it a unique model and a highlight on any model railway layout. The model has era-appropriate lighting, close couplers between the locomotive and tender, and delicate metal driving and coupling rods.

Information about the prototype: It was not until quite late, in 1936/37, that the Cologne Regional Office was assigned locomotives 01 192 - 198 for traffic on the Rhine. 01 193 was accepted on 21.12.36 and assigned to the Deutzerfeld depot. The locomotives are also assigned to haul the legendary "Rheingold Express", which they take over from the BR 18.5. The Offenburg depot has been hauling it with 01 on the Upper Rhine to Basel since 1930. In Cologne, 01 193 also survived the war and arrived in Hamm in 1948. Here it operated with numerous sister locomotives on the east-west axis Aachen - Hanover until 1959 and was then transferred to Paderborn. In 1960, it received a new high-performance boiler in Nied. After just five years, it is transferred to Rheine in 1964, and from Paderborn it turns in Kassel and northwards in Bremen, Emden and Oldenburg. For use in the Netherlands, the Rheine 01s often have a 2'2T30 tender. The increasing allocation of 01.10 makes the 01 superfluous, 001 193-2 is already taken out of service on 21.06.68. Gustav Ahrens GmbH dismantled it in Essen-Rellinghausen in September and October 1969.
