The 92655 BR 50.0 steam locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) is a faithfully reproduced model that perfectly reflects the atmosphere of the late steam locomotive era in Era IV. With its precise workmanship, extensive digital functions and a limited one-off edition in 2025, this locomotive is a real highlight for collectors and model railroaders.
The class 50 is one of the best-known steam locomotives in Germany and was designed as a universal locomotive during the Second World War. It could be used for both freight and passenger services on main and branch lines. After the end of the war, it remained in service in both German states and continued to be operated by the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) in the GDR.
Many of these locomotives were still in use in Era IV, which lasted from around 1965 to 1990, although the switch to diesel and electric locomotives was already well advanced. The BR 50.0 was characterized by its reliability and versatility and could be found on numerous lines in the GDR, where it often hauled heavy freight trains or local trains.
Era IV marks the transition from the traditional steam locomotive era to modern diesel and electric technology. While traction conversion was already well advanced in West Germany, many steam locomotives continued to be used intensively in the GDR. The introduction of internationally agreed vehicle markings and new color concepts characterized this period. The BR 50.0 is a typical example of this era and can be ideally integrated into historical train sets of the Deutsche Reichsbahn.
The renowned manufacturer Tillig is known for its detailed models in TT scale. The BR 50.0 steam locomotive also impresses with its precise detailing and high-quality workmanship. The filigree reproduction of the boiler fittings, the precise printing and the fine engravings make this locomotive a real eye-catcher.
The model is equipped with a digital interface in accordance with NEM 662 and offers extensive sound and lighting effects that provide a realistic driving experience. The 3-light headlights at both ends of the locomotive, depending on the direction of travel, give the locomotive additional authenticity. The integrated sound functions make driving on the model railway layout even more impressive.
The powered axles and the four traction tires ensure high tractive power so that even longer freight trains can be pulled without any problems. The coupler pocket with close coupling kinematics ensures a safe and stable connection with other wagons. The model is also prepared for the installation of an electric coupling, which increases flexibility in play operation.
The model shows the typical color scheme of the German State Railroad in Era IV with precisely applied lettering and markings. The clean paintwork and the detailed reproduction of the front of the locomotive and the running gear components underline the authentic appearance. The intricate details on the boiler, driver's cab and chimney make the locomotive a real highlight.
The combination of historical authenticity, powerful technology and extensive digital functions makes this steam locomotive the ideal choice for anyone who wants to capture the atmosphere of the late steam locomotive era on their model railway layout. The limited one-off edition in 2025 also makes the model a coveted collector's item.
The model is ideal for use in front of heavy freight trains or in local trains on main and branch lines. Thanks to the flexible coupling kinematics and the high tractive power, the locomotive can easily be used in historical train sets of Era IV. A realistic picture of GDR railroad history is also created in combination with other DR cars and locomotives.
The 92655 steam locomotive BR 50.0, DR, Ep. IV is a high-quality model that impresses with its detailed design, powerful technology and extensive sound and lighting effects.
