Lenz 40256-01 0 Dampflok BR 56 362, DB, Ep. III

Powerful and rich in tradition - DB Class 56 362 steam locomotive in 0 gauge

With the class 56 362, a true classic of the steam locomotive era returns to the world of model railroads. As a further development of the popular 55 and 56 series, it was a tireless performer in freight and branch line service for decades. As part of a new small series, this model is now appearing in a revised form - authentic, rich in detail and technically up to date. Particularly pleasing: The elimination of tooling costs has made it possible to reduce the price significantly - even for models that have already been pre-ordered.

Technology and model facts at a glance

0 gauge - true to detail on a large scale

The BR 56 362 is built in 0 gauge and has an impressive appearance with a length over buffers of 407 mm. At home in Era III and in the classic DB design, this model is a real highlight for fans of historic steam technology. The locomotive not only impresses with its presence, but also with its technical equipment and robust construction.

Interior lighting and lighting effects

Thanks to integrated interior and driver's cab lighting as well as constant light with direction-dependent changes, the locomotive offers a particularly atmospheric display - both when running and when stationary. The close-coupling kinematics ensure a reliable connection to matching wagons and improve handling on tight radii.

Modern technology meets classic form

The locomotive is equipped with four powered axles and delivers strong tractive power. Metal wheelsets, spring buffers and a retrofittable screw coupling complete the well thought-out technical concept. The locomotive is suitable for both digital and analog operation. RailCom ensures modern compatibility, while sound functions and a remote-controlled coupler provide additional realism on the layout.

Historical role model - tried and tested in use

The class 56 was once an important part of the freight traffic of the German Federal Railroad. Robust technology, reliable running characteristics and universal usability made it an indispensable workhorse in Era III. The new edition of the BR 56 362 brings this era back to life on a large scale - a must for model railroaders interested in history.

Secure now - greatly reduced new edition

The new edition of the BR 56 362 offers more than just technology: it is a piece of railroad history, implemented with modern model-making technology. Thanks to the reduced RRP, this is a particularly attractive offer for collectors and railway enthusiasts.
