Built from 1928 to 1940, the Class 24 locomotive was largely identical in construction to the Class 64 tank locomotive. Boilers, cylinders, engines, wheelsets and many other parts were interchangeable. The two-cylinder superheated steam engine with Heusinger control drove the second coupling wheel set. On the flat, the machines could haul a 350-ton train at 90 km/h. Originally, all locomotives had Wagner wind deflectors, but at DB they were replaced by Witte wind deflectors on many locomotives.
In the model, it is the same as in the original; many parts are identical. That's why, after the BR64, we are also reissuing the popular BR 24. And for the first time also in two interesting variants that we have not yet offered. The DB variant with the small Witte wind deflectors and the loner 24 061, which the Göttingen test institute equipped with a tender 2'2'T26, which could store almost twice as much water and also allowed reversing at 80 km/h due to its rear wall of the driver's cab.
This locomotive model also impresses with its rich equipment and - like all Lenz locomotives - with the faithful detailed representation. Equipment of the BR 24 in addition to the standard equipment:
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.
