Description
Steam locomotive series 98.8 (Gtl 4/4) of the Deutsche Bundesbahn.
¦ True to the original paintwork and lettering
¦ Die-cast metal chassis
The 98.8 series, the Bavarian. GtL 4/4, was first put into service in 1911 by the Bavarian State Railways. With a few changes, it was continued to be built until 1927. The locomotives proved themselves very well in operation and, with an output of 450 hp, were the most powerful Bavarian local railroad locomotives. A total of 117 locomotives were manufactured. Almost all railway depots in Bavaria that served branch lines had GtL 4/4 in their inventory. The last two Bavarian GtL 4/4s from the Schweinfurt depot were among the favorite locomotives of railway fans in the 1960s. Towards the end of her career, 098 812 often ran on the branch line from Bad Neustadt (Saale) to Königshofen (in Grabfeld) and hauled passenger and freight trains there. The locomotive has been preserved as a rolling museum locomotive for the Ulm Railway Friends.
