BR 64 - the model

After the founding of the Deutsche Reichsbahn Gesellschaft (DRG) in 1925, the unfavourable variety of locomotives of the former state railways was to be gradually replaced by so-called standard designs.
Between 64 and 1928, a total of 1940 of the engines, also known as "Bubikopf", were built at almost all German locomotive factories. Due to the excellent running characteristics in forward and reverse travel with a maximum speed of 520 km/h, the 90' C 1' locomotive was often used in front of passenger trains, but also in front of push-pull trains and mixed trains. The locomotive was at home in numerous depots and was on the road in all parts of Germany. It was not until 1 that the last locomotives were retired.

BR 64 - the model

This locomotive model also impresses with its rich equipment and - like all Lenz locomotives - with the faithful detailed representation. Equipment of the BR 64 in addition to the standard equipment:

• Decoder with USP and energy storage as well as numerous functions and sound already integrated
• Noiseless engine control enables smooth, jerk-free running and particularly good low-speed driving characteristics
• The speed of the motor is determined by an angle magnetic sensor mounted on the motor axle
• The lamps are equipped with maintenance-free LEDs
• In digital mode, the front and rear headlights can be switched on and off separately, and the brightness can be adjusted separately from other lights
• The driver's cab lighting can be switched separately from the headlight, the brightness can be adjusted separately from other lights
• The shunting gear reduces the speed of the locomotive by about half, so shunting movements can be carried out particularly sensitively; Manoeuvring light means that both the front and rear (white) lamps are switched on, regardless of the direction of travel

The new editions

The models are equipped with the Lenz-e.motion drive with the angle magnetic sensor mounted on the motor axle for motor control. In addition, the new models are equipped with a smoke generator with wheel-synchronous smoke output.
