Historical role model: The class 78.10 steam locomotive

The class 78.10 goes back to the famous Prussian P8 locomotives, which were further developed over the decades. These tank locomotives were modified by the German Federal Railways in the 1950s in order to achieve greater efficiency in local and express train services. The BR 78.10 was one of the last further developments of this classic design and was characterized by its robust construction and improved performance values.

Era III - The heyday of steam locomotives

Era III extends from 1945 to 1970 and is considered one of the most exciting times in the German railroad system. During this era, the Deutsche Bundesbahn was in the process of modernizing its rail network, while at the same time numerous steam locomotives were still in active service. The class 78.10 was an important part of this transition and made a significant contribution to the transportation of passenger and freight trains.

Detailed and high-quality model realization

The model of the Trix 22892 class 78.10 steam locomotive is impressive because of its high-quality metal construction with finely detailed add-on parts. Many separately applied details such as piston rod protection tubes, brake hoses and screw couplings contribute to the authentic representation of the locomotive. Engine driver and stoker figures are also included as standard, giving the driver's cab even more realism.

State-of-the-art digital technology with impressive functions

The Trix 22892 is equipped with a powerful digital decoder that makes numerous functions possible. In addition to digital control of light and sound, the locomotive has digitally controllable cab lighting, realistic firebox flickering and a digitally controllable smoke unit installed as standard.
