Prototype: This type of steam locomotive was the strongest tank locomotive ever procured by the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft. A total of 45 pieces of this gigantic machine were built. It got its nickname "Bergkönigin" due to its predominant use on the railway lines between Sonneberg and Probstzella, the Spessart ramp, the Frankenwaldbahn, the Geislinger Steige, the inclined plane and the Rübelandbahn. After the Second World War, 31 locomotives of the series came to the Deutsche Reichsbahn. In the 1950s, boiler equipment, fittings, pumps, driver's cab, etc. were adapted to the DR practices in the course of maintenance and thus largely standardized. Between 1966 and 1972, 24 engines were converted to main oil firing, and 10 locomotives were given a new boiler without a feed dome. The Eisfeld Sonneberg railway line was the last operational area. The last machines were not taken out of service until 1981.
Roco
Item no.: Roco-76030
Founded in 1960 as a manufacturer of plastic products (sand buckets, miniature military vehicles), the company is now one of the world's leading providers of model railways as an innovation leader. The first locomotives were produced in 1976. The models were characterized by precision and authenticity right from the start and established the company's reputation for quality early on.
In addition, Roco has always thought further about model railways and stimulated the industry with innovations. Over the decades, the wagons that are not shortened in length, the more prototypical tracks with less high rail profiles or the "snag-free" close couplings should be mentioned. A milestone for the future is the cutting-edge Z21 control system, which for the first time combines the virtual and real game worlds and thus raises the play value of model railways to a completely new level.
Company headquarters are in Bergheim/Salzburg. Roco has a global presence and, via Modelleisenbahn München GmbH, is a company of Modelleisenbahn Holding GmbH, which also includes the German quality manufacturer Fleischmann.
Roco relies on valuable and manual work. This is the only way to create the detailed, highly reliable and functional miniatures. Comprehensive quality management with internal and external quality assurance measures ensures that Roco locomotive and wagon owners receive the best quality and can enjoy their models for a long time. Here, too, Roco is a pioneer. The Roco factory in Arad was the first factory in the model railway industry to be certified according to ISO 9001 by the German DQS GmbH.
