Historical background
The T 9.3 was developed from the end of the 19th century and was used in many German railroad departments. The DRG took over the locomotives as class 91.3 and used them extensively in front of light freight trains, passenger trains and in shunting service. Their compact design and robust construction made them a reliable workhorse on main and branch lines in Era II.
Compatibility & expansion options
The locomotive is compatible with all common H0 track systems in 2L-DC format and can be easily digitized using the PluX16 interface. It fits ideally in front of historical train sets of Era II - especially with DRG freight and passenger cars in Prussian design.
