This compact tender locomotive is a must for all fans of the steam era.

Design & workmanship

The model of the class 92.64 is executed in the finest detail. Clean rivet replicas, exact line routing and the finest printing reflect the prototype in an impressive way.

Technical features & special features

Compact, powerful and digitally prepared

This locomotive is perfect for branch lines, short freight trains or as a shunting locomotive in the station area. Thanks to the digital interface in accordance with NEM 662, a decoder can be easily retrofitted - as can a sound function for an even more realistic driving experience.

Lighting & minimum radius

The model has prototypical lighting with 2 headlights at the front and 1 tail light at the rear. The minimum radius of 360 mm also allows use on more compact layouts with tighter curves.

Historical background

The 92.64 series was originally used as the Prussian T13 and was later taken over by the DR and continued in operation. In the GDR, it was mainly used on small stations, industrial railroads and in shunting service - robust, reliable and durable. This model embodies the end of an era before diesel and electric locomotives finally took over operations.

Compatibility & expansion options

The locomotive is fully compatible with common H0 track systems and can be perfectly combined with short freight or passenger trains of Era III. It is ideally suited for train compositions with two-axle freight cars, thunderboxes or PmG trains in regional service.
