The “chuffs” of exhaust from the funnel and steam exhausts from the cylinders are synchronised with the speed!

The design sketch above shows the smoke generator below the funnel, with a motor driven fan to blow the steam exhausts from the funnel and cylinders.

The fan motor speed is directly co-ordinated with the drive motor and “Plux 22” decoder, both mounted in the tender with the sound on board loudspeaker above. Thus when all four components act in unison, the realism of the steam engine is brought to life in miniature.

The smoke fuel is the standard “Seuthe” smoke fluid obtainable from dealers, and the large tank hidden inside the boiler allows about ten minutes running before refill. Refilling is via the valve in the steam dome atop the boiler.

Due for release in early 2011, the class 10 steam engine, incorporates the latest technology to give you realistic chuffing steam, together with the realistic sounds as the loco runs around your layout! Not only that, but the loco lights (cab, front & rear) can be digitally turned on or off, as well as the inspection lighting under the skirting of the chassis!

The Class 10 001 of the German Railways is modelled in her 1950’s appearance hauling express trains. PRE-ORDER NOW!

The T13 began life as a Prussian design loco in 1910, with a second batch being constructed in the 1920’s, being utilised by many of the old regional state railway companies. In 1925, the class was assembled into the Deutsche Reichsbahn nationalisation programme under the classification 92.5. Having started her career so early, she was eventually taken out of service by the DB in 1965.
