It was a real icon on DB tracks until the late 1960s: the massive express steam locomotive 18 323, which has what it takes to become a star in the Trix H0 range as a perfectly designed model. As a powerful and fast machine, it was used throughout the Federal Republic until 1969 under the direction of the Federal Railway Central Office. The new Trix H0 model is therefore a real highlight in every collection and on every system that takes place in the important DB Era III. Its appearance in the midst of the then ultra-modern diesel and electric locomotives and the widely used standard steam locomotives will cause a great stir, just as the big model did. With unusual stories associated with this German locomotive icon.
