Aiguillage de locomotive diesel LGB 2062 échelle G Ludwig Gross-Bietriebe C7/EX 2024 0-6-0

Exceptionally rare limited edition Deutsche Bahn 3 axle switcher in overall excellent condition. The steel wheels are bright and shiny, and everything functions great. Overall a smooth runner with lots of charm and character that is sure to impress on any layout. All axles and journals have been lined and greased, and no nicks or scratches appear to be on the locomotive. Overall a very unique and handsome engine in dark blue livery. Comes with original box.

The first American Diesel locomotives were built in the early 1920's. Little believe in their usefulness ended their first test engines. Then in the early 1930s a Diesel Switcher was built by EMD (a General Motors Division) and later by ALCO and GE that was accepted by the market. All these switchers were 4-axle switchers from the start and later developed into 6- and 8-axle switcher Diesel locos. LGB never took on any of those real American Diesel switchers. Instead LGB focused on the German type of the switcher, that was also developed in the 1930s and was consistently a 3-axle engine. Those were first offered in 1991 as the LGB 2062 which was more a compilation of the idea of a narrow gauge Diesel switcher than the model of a consisting prototype
