Steam Locomotive BR 18 DR 2-3-1

 

BR 18 (Bayer. S3 / 6)

Between 1908 and 1918 the "königliche. Staatsbahn Bayer" (Royal Bavarian State Railways) bought from the "Maffei" works 71 locomotives of this type with streamlined drivers cab. After the 1st World War 18 of these locomotives were handed over to  France and Belgium as war compensation.

Between 1912 and 1918 another 18 locomotives were built and though similar, they are noticeably different as they are provided with a normal drivers cab, the drive wheels and larger diameter and a different tender.

In 1923 and subsequent years a further 50 similar locomotives were built by "Maffei" and "Henschel". Of the latter, in the 50's, 30 were rebuilt by the DB.

Produced by Rivarossi from 1987 until 1999
