Comment: LGB 20480 - DR Class 99.64-65 Narrow Gauge Steam Locomotive (Former Saxon VI K) Shortly before the end of World War I, the Heeresfeld Railways ordered 15 superheated steam locomotives with 5 coupled driving axles from Henschel in Cassel. In November of 1918, these units were at Henschel ready to be picked up, however on November 11, 1918 an agreement was reached on the Armistice, and these units with their 5 coupled driving axles came too late for use in the war. Since the Saxon State Railroad needed powerful locomotives for their 750 mm / 30-inch narrow gauge lines with their many grades, they quickly decided to take the 15 locomotives for a price of 92,000 Reich Marks per unit as the class VI K and assigned them the road numbers 210-224. Indeed, the class VI K units with their 5 coupled driving axles could deliver a good 50% higher performance than the IV K and with the side play of the first, third and fifth wheel sets they could also negotiate the sharpest curves, but they derailed rather often on the weak roadbed of the Saxon lines. Therefore, measures to reinforce and renew the roadbed had to be introduced immediately on the lines planned for use by the locomotives. On the DRG, these locomotives were given the road numbers 99 641-655. Since they turned in excellent results after the roadbed had been reinforced, the DRG ordered another 47 units that were delivered between 1923 and 1927 as road numbers 99 671-717 from Henschel, the Saxon Machine Factory in Chemnitz, and the Machine Factory of Karlsruhe. After World War II, 10 locomotives were removed from the roster as lost in the war. Another 14 units disappeared as booty into the Soviet Union, and road number 99 702 remained in Czechoslovakia. Ten locomotives came to the DB, while the DR added 27 units to their roster. On the DB road number 99 651 was the last of its class to be given the computer-generated designation 099 651 in 1968. It was retired on September 19, 1969 and was on display as a memorial for many years at the former Bottwartal Railroad in Steinheim/Murr. This locomotive is a former "Öchsle" / "Little Ox" steam locomotive and the only unit still in existence from the first production series of the Saxon Vl K from 1918. After much effort, it was finally sent back to Ochsenhausen in June of 2016 for permanent protected storage. Seven DR locomotives (road numbers 99 673, 678, 685, 692, 703, 713, and 715) were equipped with new welded boilers and water tanks starting in 1963. Seven other units (road numbers 99 648, 653, 654, 687, 694, 696, and 706) were thoroughly restored as part of a general repair program. This almost new construction also gave these locomotives a welded sheet metal frame. In addition, the drive was changed from the fourth to the third wheelset. A new feature was a vacuum-controlled air brake system. The DR was able to get rid of its locomotives after the massive decline of narrow gauge operations at the end of 1973.

Running sounds will also work in analog operation.

One-time series on the occasion of the presentation of the Saxon train on the SOEG. Limited worldwide to 399 pieces. To be delivered in 2017.

Comment: 21980L - Class I K Steam Locomotive with a Saxon SOEG Train From August 5 - 7, 2016 in the Zittau Mountains, the big event "Historic Mobility" took place for the tenth time, which combined the Lückendorf Mountain Run, the festival of the Zittau Narrow Gauge Railroad, and the Jonsdorf Old-Timer Days. In addition to the old-timers for rail and road, a special treat awaited visitors at the Bertsdorf station. On Friday August 5, the joint venture "Saxon I K Train" was presented there for the first time to the astonished public. On the weekend, the train even did limited special runs. Starting in 1881 the Saxon State Railways purchased small, short 3-axle steam locomotives from Hartmann in Chemnitz for its narrow gauge lines (750 mm / 30"). They were later designated as the class I K. By 1892, Hartmann delivered a total of 39 units to the Saxon State Railways. Five units went to the privately owned Zittau-Oybin-Jonsdorf Railroad (ZOJE) between 1889 and 1891 that was taken over in 1906 by the state railroad. A total of 12 locomotives had been retired by the time of the DRG's introduction of its definitive new class designation plan in 1925. The DRG classed the rest as road numbers 99 7501-7527 in its motive power pool but retired all of them by 1928. The Association for the Promotion of Saxon Narrow Gauge Railways (VSSB) created an interesting project in 2005: A milestone in Saxon narrow gauge railroad history was brought back to life with the new construction of a "Saxon I K" with road number 54. The assembly of the approximately 4,400 individual parts produced in Saxony took place on January 16, 2009 at the well-known DB steam locomotive maintenance facility in Meiningen. Exactly five months later, this unit did its first test run there. The "New Construction" I K, road number 54, was officially put into operation in Radebeul on July 4, 2009. Suitable two-axle cars from the right construction years and weights had to be found, overhauled, or rebuilt to assemble an authentic train (from around 1900) for the I K. The construction and restoration of such cars by different associations allowed the display for the first time of an original train from the early period of the Saxon Narrow Gauge Railways. The I K had the "Saxon Train" with 2nd and 3rd class passenger cars, a baggage car, and two freight cars. Of special note is the double cars, 2nd/3rd class (built in 1882/83), which were rebuilt extensively by the special interest association of the Zittau Narrow Gauge Railways.

Passenger cars of the Saxon train to go with this locomotive are available under item numbers 35091, 35092, and 35094. The running sounds will also work in analog operation.

The model has many separately applied details such as conductors, plugs, windshield wipers, antennas, and rear-view mirrors. The model has sprung buffers and complete rail clearance devices (the center part of the rail clearance devices can be replaced with a standard LGB coupler that is included with the train). Length over the buffers 206 cm / 81-1/8".

One-time series in 2016.

Comment: LGB 22225 - RhB Class ABe 8/12 "Allegra" Powered Rail Car Train On October 14, 2009, the Rhaetian Railroad (RhB) set a new milestone in its tradition-filled history, because the first of 15 new three-part dual system powered rail car trains (11 kilovolts /16.7 Hertz and 1 kilovolt DC), the class "ALLEGRA", was festively received on this day in Landquart. The new train is not only highly modern, but it also conceals significant innovations and a lot of power inside. All the wheelsets are powered in both end cars. The multi-system drive equipment consists of 4 drive trains with water-cooled IGBT rectifiers and produces 2.6 megawatts / 3,485 horsepower with AC voltage (2.4 megawatts / 3,217 horsepower with 1 kilovolt DC). That is extremely high because the most powerful RhB locomotive, the high-performance class Ge 4/4 III, offers "only" 3.1 megawatts / 4,155 horsepower of performance. With 8 powered wheelsets and its performance, the "ALLEGRA" develops a correspondingly high tractive effort of 260 kilo newton / 58,450 pound-force, which exceeds that of the Ge 4/4 III by 30%. With it, the builder Stadler succeeded in creating a unique meter gauge powered rail car train in the entire world in terms of power density, performance, and weight. One special challenge here was to "stow" the power packets in the limited space beneath the powered rail car floor and on the roof, which also succeeded thanks to innovative solutions. The non-powered intermediate car offers comfortable entry with its depressed floor area, a handicap-accessible toilet, and storage space for baby strollers. There is space in the class ABe 8/12 with its fully air conditioned passenger areas for 24 seats in 1st class and 76 seats in 2nd class as well as additional fold-down seats and standing room. A modern passenger information system with flat screens is also standard. The ends of the powered rail car trains with the Grisons canton coat-of-arms lends the lower part of the cab with its shape coming to a point and the straight cab windows arching to the back a certain sharp edged look and it also symbolizes its power. The "ALLEGRA" can also claim a speed record for meter gauge trains because on December 20, 2010 unit 3502 reached a proud 145 km/h / 91 mph on a special run in the Vereina Tunnel.

The running sounds will also work in analog operation.

One-time series for the 100th anniversary of the Schöllenenbahn / Schöllenen Railroad.

Comment: LGB 23461 - Schöllenen Railroad (SchB) Class Hge 2/2 Electric Locomotive After long exhausting struggles, the planning pushed through for the electric narrow gauge Schöllenen Railroad with rack operation from the Göschenen Station through the gorge that is the Schöllenen Valley up to Andermatt was implemented starting in 1913. The Abt system for the rack operation was selected in view of the connection at Andermatt to the Brig-Furka-Disentis Line (later the FO - Furka-Oberalp Line). The only 3.6 kilometer / 2.25 mile long and 17.9 percent steep line claimed three tunnels, three stone bridges, a large avalanche deflection wall, and a 210 meter / 682 foot 6 inch long gallery as its own. It was initially electrified with 1,200 volts DC. The sudden outbreak of World War I in the summer of 1914 caused construction work to proceed only sluggishly and finally ended with a modest dedication ceremony on July 11, 1917. Initially four small class HGe 2/2 two-axle electric cogwheel locomotives with the road numbers 1 to 4 from BBC (electrical part) and SLM (mechanical part) were available for scheduled operation the next day. Their power transmission was done from the two propulsion motors by means of a gearbox with double reduction to the two driving cogwheels and to two jackshafts that used coupling rods to power the two sets of driving wheels with their diameter of 712 mm / 28 inches. The two DC motors connected in parallel produced 235 kilowatts / 315 horsepower that allowed a load of 40 metric tons at a maximum speed of 8 km/h / 5 mph on the rack part of the line. In 1941, the FO was electrified with 11 kilovolts / 16? hertz AC and the Schöllenen Railroad was also converted at that time to allow trouble-free train operations. The class HGe 2/2 units were equipped with two new series motors with a rated hourly output of 429 kilowatts / 575 horsepower that now allowed 48 metric tons to be pushed at a top speed of 14.5 km/h / 9 mph. In 1961, the Schöllenen Railroad and the FO merged. The locomotives now ran with road numbers 21-24 and successively lost their cream / light gray paint scheme in favor of the FO's dark red. Starting in 1972, they were only used in freight and switching service. Between 1976 and 1985, these locomotives were taken out of service. Unfortunately, none of these units with two coupled sets of driving wheels was preserved because they all ended up on the scrap pile.

The car set 36642 is available to go with this locomotive. The running sounds will also work in analog operation.

One-time production in 2017.

Comment: LGB 28441 - Rhaetian Railroad Ge 4/4 II 629 Electric Locomotive At the end of the 1960s the Rhaetian Railroad urgently needed new electric locomotives for its core network mostly to replace old units from the period of electrification, but also to add to the roster due to increases in service. The RhB's management advisory committee decided at the beginning of September 1970 to purchase 10 modern class Ge 4/4 II thyristor locomotives with road numbers 611-620. They were built by the Swiss Locomotive and Machinery Company (SLM) in Winterthur (the mechanical part) and by Brown Boveri & Cie (BBC) in Baden (the electrical part). Their external appearance was quite similar to the standard gauge SBB class Re 4/4 II locomotives. There were by contrast clear differences in the electrical part: Phase control with controlled rectifiers built up using thyristors and diodes supplied the traction motors with pulsating direct current. A special feature was the low mounted drawbars and cable equipment to compensate for the lower weight of the trucks. Together with the ingenious control of the pulsating current traction motors, this guaranteed optimal adhesion utilization. In line with the level of technology at that time, the locomotives also had electrical resistance braking. Due to the strong growth in traffic, the RhB placed a subsequent series of 13 units in service between February of 1984 and January of 1985. This add-on series was largely identical to the first series and bore the road numbers 621-633. An add-on series of the class Ge 4/4 II allowed chiefly savings in maintenance costs and reserve parts. Several components were however adapted to the current level of technology. For the first time the locomotives had the red RhB paint scheme that is still in use today. This scheme was also applied to the green units of the first series as they came in for all the possible overhauls. Starting in 1999, new rectangular headlights were installed when locomotives came in for major maintenance, and between 2004 and 2008 all 23 units underwent a modernization program in which a modern computer-supported control technology replaced the analog control electronics. The RhB soon also recognized the potential of these locomotives as an advertising medium and a memorable advertising message has since adorned the locomotive bodies of more than half of the roster. Among them is the current Ge 4/4 II 629 that is now running as the advertising medium for the new construction of the Albula Tunnel and all the firms involved in the construction.

Comment: LGB 33350 - SOEG Gondola with a Band The Saxon-Oberlausitz Railroad Company LLC (SOEG) offers so-called music trains on its narrow-gauge lines from Zittau to Oybin and Jonsdorf using the slogan "With Dixieland through the Zittau Mountains." They usually run once a month in good weather during the high season with a Dixieland band playing lively jazz music in a gondola. This type OO band car, car number 97-23-19, was built in 1919 by the Busch Car Company in Bautzen. Originally, only two-axle gondolas were used on the Saxon narrow gauge railways. To increase load capacity, the Saxon State Railways started purchasing cars with trucks in 1899. The type OOw four-axle units now had a load capacity of 10 metric tons. However, all too quickly this type was not enough to meet requirements. In 1913, four-axle gondolas with trucks began to be built as the type OO with 15 metric ton load capacity. Car builders in Werdau, Bautzen, and Görlitz built these cars. By 1922, 342 of these gondolas had been built. In 1938, Linke-Hofmann-Busch (LHB) in Bautzen was alone delivering the last 15 four-axle cars as the type OO. They had an improved frame, a brakeman's platform, modern standard design trucks, and 4 instead of 2 loading doors. However, purchases of this car type ended. Car number 97-23-19 comes from a series of 142 cars put into service after World War I from 1918 to 1922. In the prototype, the band car is 10,220 mm / 33 feet 6 inches long and 1,926 mm / 76 inches wide. This provides a load surface 9.48 meters / 30 feet 10 inches long and 1.85 meters / 6 feet wide that translates into a floor surface of 17.5 square meters / 188.37 square feet. This square footage allows enough space for a band. The pivot spacing between the Saxon archbar trucks is 6,700 mm / 263-3/4 inches. The 1,050 mm / 41-5/16-inch-high side walls of wooden boards offer safety to the musicians and ensures nothing stands in the way of undisturbed musical enjoyment.

Comment: LGB 42636 - ÖBB Type GGm-s Freight Car In 1942/43, the German State Railroad (DRG) had around 125 standard design, four-axle freight cars built for its 760 mm / 30 inch lines in the East March (Austria as absorbed by Germany in the Thirties) by Waggonfabrik Busch in Bautzen. They were planned as replacements for countless old freight car types. They were designed for 20 metric tons load weight and the frame and bodies had to be built very solidly. They had modern pressed frame trucks and a roofed over brakeman's platform where the handbrake was placed. Boxcars (GGw/s) as well as high side gondolas (OOw/s) were built. Two sliding doors on both car sides gave access to the boxcars. These doors were hung on a slide track below the roof. The cars were used on all of Austria's narrow gauge lines, chiefly on the Mariazeller Railroad and the Ybbs Valley Railroad, but also on the narrow gauge lines in the Waldviertel area and on the Steyr Valley Railroad. The latter two ran their freight service right up to the end with these boxcars, which were then running on the ÖBB as the type GGm-s. Even the museum operation on the remaining part of the Steyr Valley Railroad still has these boxcars on its roster and uses them occasionally. After all the Steyr Valley Railroad was a Mecca for railroad fans up to the halting of operations on its remaining part. It offered only steam operations and freight trains still ran exclusively with narrow gauge locomotives and cars because the permissible axle loads did not allow roller block or roller car operations. The Steyr Valley Railroad, Inc. was founded in 1888 for the construction of a narrow gauge line through the Steyr Valley from Garsten (near Steyr) via Grünburg to Klaus. The line Garsten - Grünburg was festively opened as early as August 19, 1889 and the extension in the direction of Klaus to Agonitz followed on November 18, 1890. Construction continued with the building of a branch line from Pergern to Bad Hall with the opening taking place on December 1, 1891. Finally, the Steyr Valley Railroad - in the local dialect soon known as "Schnackerlbahn" / "Hiccup Railway" or "Schnackerl-Stessn" / "Hiccup" - reached its greatest length of 55 kilometers / 34 miles with the opening of operations on the last part of the line to Klaus on October 26, 1909. The competition from new bus lines led as early as 1933 to the abandonment of the partial line Sierning - Bad Hall. After World War II, reinforcement of the light roadbed remained undone so that the line had to continue operations exclusively with (cost intensive) steam locomotives. The end of this railroad thus remained just a question of time and operations were halted in little slices: Pergern - Sierning (January 1, 1967), Grünburg - Molln - Klaus (March 29, 1980) and Garsten - Grünburg (March 1, 1982). At least after long negotiations, the Austrian Society for Railroad History (ÖGEG) succeeded in acquiring the line from the local station in Steyr to Grünburg and since 1985, it has been operating steam trains as a museum railroad.
