Based on:
Alongside the Class 01, the Class 03 were the typical steam express locomotives of the Deutsche Bundesbahn. With their 2 metre high driving wheels and slim boiler, they were an outstandingly elegant locomotives, of which 298 ones were built. They developed 1980 Hp and reached a top speed of 130 km/h. The equipment of our model 03.094 corresponds to that of epoch III.
