Description

96403 Electric Locomotive Class EG 3, DRG, Ep. II: A Pioneer Locomotive for Electric Train Hauling

The German State Railroad Company (DRG) class EG 3 electric locomotive brings historic railroad history to your model railroad layout. As a pioneer of electric train transportation in Germany, it embodies the technical progress of the 1920s and 1930s and is a highlight for fans of Era II.

The prototype: Progress through electrification

The electric locomotives of the EG 3 series were developed in the 1920s as part of the DRG's electrification strategy. They were primarily used for freight traffic on electrified lines and were known for their robust design and high tractive power. They were mainly used in mountainous regions, where their electric traction offered great advantages. Their distinctive design with the pantographs arranged on the side made them an unmistakable part of Era II.

Detailed design for the highest demands

The model impresses with an authentic replica of the locomotive, including the characteristic fan grille, fine roof cables and filigree pantographs. The precise printing in the typical DRG design emphasizes the historic look and makes the locomotive an eye-catcher on any layout.

Modern digital functions for a realistic driving experience

The locomotive is equipped with a 3-light headlamp at the front and a 2-light taillight at the rear, which can be switched depending on the direction of travel. The digital interface in accordance with NEM 662 allows easy digitization. A sound retrofit is also possible, which faithfully reproduces the distinctive operating noise of the electric locomotive.

Powerful driving characteristics

With a length over buffers of 136 mm and two traction tires, the locomotive offers excellent tractive power, even with longer freight or passenger trains. Thanks to its robust construction and precise drive technology, the locomotive is ideal for use on demanding layouts.

A versatile range of applications

Although the EG 3 was primarily designed for freight traffic, it was also used in front of passenger trains. You can use this locomotive flexibly on your model railway layout in various Era II scenarios and thus realistically recreate historical operations.

Conclusion: A masterpiece of historical model making

The 96403 TT DRG class EG 3 electric locomotive is an absolute must for collectors and model railroaders who value historical details and technical perfection. With its successful combination of authentic appearance and modern digital technology, this locomotive will enrich any layout.
