The Roco H0 steam locomotive 50 849 is an impressive replica of a true legend of German railroad history. Built in 1940 by Krauss-Maffei in Munich-Allach under the factory number 16058, the locomotive remained in the Soviet occupation zone after the Second World War and from then on served with the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR). After the end of its active service, it was taken over and restored by the 3/75 "Eisenbahntradition" Zwickau working group, which was founded in 1979. It has been part of the DR Tradition Park since 1980 and has been used many times in special trains, including as the locomotive of the "Zwickau Tradition Train". Today, the rolling museum locomotive is lovingly maintained in the Glauchau engine shed.
The steam locomotive impresses with its filigree and true-to-original design. The precise details on the boiler, running gear and tender are particularly noteworthy. The elaborate paintwork in classic black and the fine imprints authentically reproduce the locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn. The combination of robust construction and outstanding appearance makes this model a real eye-catcher on any H0 layout.
The class 50 was one of the most versatile and most frequently built freight steam locomotives in Germany. After its active career, locomotive 50 849 experienced a renaissance in traditional DR train operation and still symbolizes the passion for classic steam locomotive technology today. Its maintenance in the Glauchau engine shed preserves an important chapter of German railroad history.
The locomotive can be used on all standard H0 track systems and can be easily integrated into existing Era III and IV layouts. Subsequent digitization is possible thanks to the existing interface. Ideal for combining with historic DR freight and passenger trains.

Whether for historical freight traffic or special train operation - this model is a perfect addition to any H0 layout with a focus on the Deutsche Reichsbahn.
