About the prototype: WHAT IF...? Blue parade steam locomotives: The class 03.10 was a further development of the BR 03 standard express locomotive. The single twin engine was replaced by a triplet engine and a streamlined full cowling was provided, which saved fuel. In contrast to the original plan, the 03.10 series' great career only began after it had been "stripped" and refurbished. Due to the F-train network currently being developed and the so-called light express train service between Dortmund and Frankfurt, three of the noble racers were painted in elegant steel blue. Due to the high mileage, increased wear quickly became noticeable on the boilers, which were made of non-ageing-resistant steel. From 1957, new, fully welded high-performance boilers with a combustion chamber in the firebox were installed. In keeping with the tradition of the "Blue Mauritius", it is quite conceivable that a parade steam engine with a new boiler continued this custom?
