1:35 Trumpeter 00217 Dampflokomotive BR86 WWII – German Steam Locomotive Plastic Model kit

The 1:35 Trumpeter 00217 Dampflokomotive BR86 WWII is an atmospheric plastic model kit of a legendary German steam locomotive. This impressive scale model is ideal for modellers who enjoy historical railway modelling, German locomotives, WWII dioramas and technical detail with real character. With its recognisable shape, solid appearance and rich background, the BR86 gives you a model that looks impressive and adds a strong story to your collection.

The real BR86 was designed to a 1925 specification for a 15-ton axle loading, intended for use on all branch lines and especially in hilly and mountainous countryside. Compared with earlier locomotive types, which had often been manufactured to regional designs, the BR86 stood out through its remarkable uniformity in construction. This standardisation of parts and components made maintenance and spare parts much easier. The first examples were produced by MGB Karlsruhe locomotive works in 1928, while the last machine was manufactured in 1943 as an interim war locomotive version. With a total of 776 built, the BR86 holds the German record for the longest production run of any locomotive ever manufactured.

This Trumpeter model brings that historic railway strength convincingly into 1:35 scale. The kit consists of 677 parts and offers full interior details, including driving section, chassis and boiler. With road beds, clear parts, vinyl pipes and an etched part, you get a model kit with plenty of potential for a realistic railway scene.
