The Brawa 70062 steam locomotive 01 232 is an exquisite replica of the powerful class 01 locomotives as they were used on the lines of the German Federal Railroad in the 1950s and 1960s. This Era III locomotive is equipped with a new sound decoder and impresses with its detailed reproduction and technical precision. The class 01 232, like 50 other locomotives in the series, received the powerful type I boiler from 1958, which was developed according to Friedrich Witte's principles and ensured improved efficiency. These technical and visual features have been faithfully implemented in the Brawa 01 232, making it a highlight on any H0 layout.
The class 01 was the first standard locomotive series for express train service on the Deutsche Reichsbahn, and it was modernized by the Deutsche Bundesbahn in the 1950s. The installation of the Witte high-performance boiler enabled more efficient combustion and significantly reduced fuel consumption. In addition to the improved boiler, technical details such as a type 57 mixing preheater and a modernized line layout were added, giving the locomotive a tidy and modern appearance. The class 01 locomotives with high-performance boilers, including the 01 232, were used by the DB until the 1970s and are among the best-known steam locomotives in Germany.
The renowned model train manufacturer Brawa is known for its exceptionally high-quality and detailed models. The 01 232 steam locomotive is a true masterpiece, made of robust, impact-resistant plastic and featuring an openwork die-cast zinc frame. The filigree metal driving and coupling rods and the true-to-original standing boiler rear wall lend the model authenticity and elegance. The spoked wheels and the period-appropriate lighting round off the overall picture and make this model a must-have for every steam locomotive enthusiast.
Era III (approx. 1945-1970) was a heyday for the German Federal Railroad, which used large numbers of steam locomotives during this time. The modernized class 01 locomotives played a central role in this era and were used on express train lines throughout Germany. The Brawa 70062 perfectly depicts this historical period and offers model railroaders the opportunity to realistically recreate German railroad history on their layout.
The Brawa 70062 steam locomotive 01 232 is designed in H0 scale and specially designed for the 2-wire direct current system. The drive in the tender ensures optimum running characteristics, and the locomotive is digitized at the factory and equipped with a high-quality sound decoder. The clearance is 275.3 mm and the model has LED lighting that switches depending on the direction of travel. The true-to-scale axle base replica and the individually mounted axle ensure an authentic driving representation, while the close coupling between the locomotive and tender guarantees a close and reliable connection.
The Brawa 01 232 is characterized by its robust construction and the high precision of its design. The body made of impact-resistant plastic and the die-cast zinc frame offer stability and durability. The filigree driving and coupling rods and the prototypical reproduction of the boiler rear wall contribute to the authenticity of the model and make it a gem on any H0 layout.
