A system of rotating gears is placed inside the frame, driving the wheels and connecting rods with a steam piston. When the model is moved, the interconnected wheels and connecting rods move realistically, emphasizing the locomotive's technical character.
The model is decorated with detailed prints, including Deutsche Reichsbahn markings and technical plates. Combined with precise shapes and distinctive express locomotive wheels, this creates a representative locomotive suitable for display.
The standard version includes 1 figure of a locomotive driver in a classic Deutsche Reichsbahn uniform and 6 straight track sections on which you can elegantly display the completed model. COBI tracks are also compatible with building sets from other brands.
The powerful BR 03 steam locomotive was designed for fast passenger transport and could reach speeds of up to 120 km/h in service. Cobi presents a faithful version of it in a large, representative design that immediately attracts attention with the large wheels typical of express locomotives and authentic proportions.
The model has a robust, “heavier” construction while also being designed to move realistically: a system of rotating gears in the frame drives the wheels connected by rods to the steam piston, similarly to a real locomotive. It also includes a coal tender and a display section of tracks.
