    Locomotive comes in Reichsbahn black RAL 9005 with red wheels.

    Prototype: Like no other. This sentence certainly applies to the Bavarian Gt 2x4/4. For the Bavarian mountanous sections, this huge tender locomotive was developed by Anton Hammel, who also designed the legendary S 3/6 at Maffei in Munich. The Mallet locomotive has two four-coupled chassis working in conjunction. The front chassis was suspended and movable. The impressive locomotives caused a sensation even at that time as an outstanding engineering achievement. So they were also provided for exhibitions, traffic shows and in the factory with interesting colors. Two series were built, the first from locomotive number 5751 to 5765, the second from 5766 to 5775. Both delivery series underwent  then from 1925 on various modifications, including a Knorr surface preheater was installed, a second air pump, additional dome and sand pipes. The Mallet design provided good traction and cornering in the narrow mountain range turns with the dimensions of the Gt 2x4/4. The first test drive took place in 1914 on the route Lichtenfels-Rothenkirchen. At an incline of 25 per thousand, the locomotive was running at 25 km / h and pulling 465 t. Of the 25 built specimens, six were retired by the end of World War II. In the western zones they were still stationed in Munich and Nuremberg, but were retired till the end of the 1940s. At the Reichsbahn Ost, however, they remained in stock until 1954. Even if none of the mighty BR 96 has survived, its appearance still impresses today and therefore cannot be thought away in Gauge1.
