Roco 78283 steam locomotive BR 44, DR, Ep. IV (incl. sound) AC current/AC

Deutsche Reichsbahn class 44 heavy freight steam locomotive with pulverized coal firing.

In the 1950s, the Deutsche Reichsbahn converted 22 locomotives to pulverized coal firing (Wendler system). An additional air tank and the additional air pump on the left circulation plate as well as the conversion of the tender with a coal dust bunker were the most noticeable changes. These machines proved to be particularly useful on the ramps of the Thuringian Forest due to their precise firing. With the introduction of the EDP numbers, the pulverized coal locomotives were renamed the 44.9 series.
