88032 - Class 37 Steam Locomotive DR - Deutsche Reichsbahn
Pre-order price: $ 179.00

Prototype: Prototype: German State Railroad (DR/GDR) class 37 passenger steam locomotive. Standard design locomotive with Wagner smoke deflectors and a 3-axle tender. The locomotive looks as it did around 1970 shortly after being renumbered and has the computer-generated road number 37 1009-2. This unit came in the end to the maintenance facility in Gsten. In 1972, it was sold to a party in West Germany. There it was given its original road number 24 009.

Model: Model: This is an improved model with fine, complete, working valve gear, imitation brakes, and a motor with a bell-shaped armature. The model has Wagner smoke deflectors. All driving axles powered. Warm white LEDs are used for the triple headlights. Length over the buffers approximately 82 mm / 3-1/4".

Comment: Locomotives for branch line service were not initially included in the DRG's standardized type program because the acquisition of new main line locomotives enjoyed a priority. New construction of the classes 24 (with a tender), 64, and 86 branch line units was not decided until later. The first 17 units of the class 24 were delivered in 1928 by Schichau (24 001-010) and Linke-Hofmann (24 031-037). A year later 69 units of these 90 km/h / 56 mph fast and 900 horsepower locomotives were already running in the districts of Stuttgart, Stettin, Schwerin, Regensburg, and Mnster. The class 24 was in many ways similar in construction to the class 64 2-6-2T tank locomotive. The boiler placed well to the front due to the more favorable weight distribution was striking. This caused the smokestack to be offset from the cylinders compared to the other standard design locomotives. The last of the 95 units of the class 24 were not taken until 1940. At the end of the Thirties most of these locomotives went to East Prussia and ran there on long branch lines. This resulted in their nickname "Prairie Pony". It was thus no wonder that after World War II almost half of the class 24 remained outside of the two German states. In addition to war losses, at least eight locomotives were collected by the Soviet Union. By 1950, 31 units were back in operation on the Polish State Railroad (PKP), now rostered as Oi2. The German Federal Railroad (DB) had 42 units overhauled. There their use was concentrated in the north and chiefly in the west of West Germany. As early as 1965 and 1966 the last five units were put into storage at the railroad maintenance facilities in Rahden and Rheydt.In the GDR area, only four locomotives remained after the end of the war (road numbers 24 002, 004, 009, and 021). The all went back into operation on the GDR's German State Railroad (DR). Planned use ended here in 1968 at the maintenance facility in Jerichow, since three units had to be put into storage in 1967/68. The Transportation Museum in Dresden then took road number 24 004 under its wing as a non-operational display piece. Only road number 24 009 survived another four years under steam. As a rescue train in reserve in Gsten and Stendal, it was even given the computer-generated but somewhat strange road number 37 1009 on July 1, 1970. Since the DR units were only provided with the digits "0" and "3-9" as the first number for steam locomotives during the computer-generated new rostering, the last class 24 units had to be given a new class designation (in this case class 37). In 1972, it was allowed to go to West Germany after being sold to the magazine Eisenbahn-Kurier, where it has remained down to the present. As early as September 24, 1972, this locomotive now designated again as road number 24 009 was used to pull special trains all over West Germany. After the DB prohibition of steam locomotives in 1977, road number 24 009 could only run on privately owned railroads in West Germany. However, it was still the first privately owned steam locomotive back on German Railroad track starting in 1993. After additional overhauls, it ran until 2007 all over Germany pulling special trains. Since then, it has been in the care of the "Steam Locomotive 24 009 Foundation" in the former maintenance facility at Gelsenkirchen-Bismarck and is waiting for better times.

Comment: The Class 64 - The "Bubikopf" as a Jack-of-all-Trades (almost).Between 1928 and 1940, many famous locomotive builders in Germany participated in creating the class 64. As part of the standard design program for the German State Railroad Company, the class 64 was also closely related to other locomotive classes, in particular the class 24, which supplied the boiler and the frame for the driving wheels. A total of 520 units were built of this 12.4 meter / 40 foot 8-3/16 inch long standard design passenger tank locomotive with a 2-6-2T wheel arrangement. Due to its lower axle load and maximum speed of 90 km/h / 56 mph, it could be used on almost all routes, and its successful design allowed a broad range of applications. Its home base was passenger train service, but lightweight limited stop fast passenger trains and many a freight train were also among its tasks, which it mastered with bravura. World War II and the division of Germany left behind deep traces in the case of the class 64. The German Federal Railroad acquired 278 locomotives, 115 went to the German State Railroad of East Germany and one locomotive remained in Austria. Like many other classes, the class 64 also acquired a nickname. A modern woman's hairstyle of the time (bobbed hair) was the inspiration for this sturdy, compact locomotive. To what extent this was flattering to the world of women or to the profession of hairstylists is debatable, but to the German Federal Railroad the class 64 was a reliable partner for crews and passengers right up to its retirement in 1974. The museum locomotives that have been preserved enjoy endless popularity.
