Model: Special feature: locomotive with cabin tender. Prototypically painted and labeled. Used windows. Cab interiors. Prototypical view between boiler and chassis. Mobile Heusinger control. Brake pads between the wheels. Die-cast metal chassis. Engine with flywheel. Drive in the tender on 8 wheels, 4 of them with traction tires. Three-light top lighting on both sides. Lok Tender close coupling. Prototype: The various versions of the 50 series are simply innumerable. Particularly interesting is the variant with four domes, circulation plate with apron, Witte smoke deflectors and cabin tender. Typical for epoch III is the partially aluminum-colored lettering with DB biscuit. Until 1962, nearly 800 T50 BR 50s received a train driver's cab to save freight train vehicles. The cabin was in the middle of the tender, so the water box was extended to the rear beyond the buffer pile.
