The Anticipation of Christmas
A great gift idea for Christmas: In the Fifties and Sixties steam locomotives adorned with appropriate lettering often received their passengers at stations at Christmastime or Easter. Now there are also Christmas greetings as a genuine model steam locomotive in a clear Acrylic display case. The class 01 steam locomotive with its Christmas greetings and the lighted Christmas tree on the buffer beam offers a special attraction. As a special highlight, the locomotive also whistles "Süßer die Glocken nie klingen" / "The bells never ring sweeter" and "Ihr Kinderlein kommet" / "Come all ye children".
Prototype: German Federal Railroad (DB) class 01 steam locomotive. Type 2´2´T34 coal tender, older design boiler, and Witte smoke deflectors included.
Model: The locomotive has an mfx digital decoder and extensive sound functions. It also has controlled high-efficiency propulsion with a flywheel, mounted in the boiler. 3 axles powered. Traction tires. The locomotive and tender are constructed mostly of metal. A 7226 smoke unit can be installed in the locomotive. The triple headlights change over with the direction of travel. They and the smoke unit that can be installed will work in conventional operation and can be controlled digitally. The locomotive has firebox flickering that can also be controlled digitally. Maintenance-free warm white LEDs are used for the lighting. The special light function is a Christmas tree with LED lighting that can be controlled digitally. As a special sound function, the locomotive whistles, "Süßer die Glocken nie klingen" / "The bells never ring sweeter" and "Ihr Kinderlein kommet" / "Come all ye children". The tender has a guide mechanism and a close coupler with an NEM pocket. Protective piston sleeves, brake hoses, and figures of a locomotive engineer and a fireman are included. The minimum radius for operation is 360 mm / 14-3/16". Length over the buffers 27.5 cm / 10-13/16".
