LGB DR Steam Loco 99 5902-4 EP VI

The LGB DR Steam Loco 99 5902-4 EP VI (HC-L26593) is a finely detailed model of the German State Railroad steam locomotive 99 5902. Built in heavy metal construction with numerous separately applied parts, it captures the look and feel of the prototype with exceptional fidelity. Two powerful motors drive all the coupled wheelsets via robust coupling rods, delivering smooth, authoritative performance.

Authentic Detailing and Mechanism

• Finely detailed Mallet-design running gear with complete valve gear.
• Functional propulsion mechanism for the lubrication pump.
• Opening cab doors and opening smoke box door for added realism.
• Prototypical black/red paint scheme and lettering as used on the DR in Era IV, with all differences to the present-day version modelled.
• Prototype-correct absence of an air pump (vacuum pump equipment modelled) and accurate boiler line routing.
• Sprung buffers and removable, digitally controlled LGB couplers at both ends.

Digital Control, Lights and Sound

• Factory-equipped mfx/DCC decoder with a wealth of light and sound functions.
• Headlights, cab lighting, running sounds, whistle and bell (whistle and bell activated by reed switches).
• Running sounds also operate in analogue mode.
• Integrated smoke unit with wheel-synchronised exhaust, cylinder steam and steam exhaust at the whistle when activated.

Performance and Dimensions

• Dual-motor drive with all driving wheelsets powered via coupling rods.
• Length over buffers: 40 cm (15-3/4″).

This LGB model of DR 99 5902 brings together precision engineering, rich sound, synchronised steam effects and faithful detailing to deliver a standout centrepiece for discerning model railway enthusiasts.
