This really nice HO gauge loco by Liliput is 45 03 a DB BR 45 steam locomotive in black livery with running number 45 001. 


German Class 45 steam locomotives were standard locomotives (Einheitslokomotiven) designed by the Deutsche Reichsbahn for hauling goods trains. The Class 45 engines were the most powerful steam locomotives ever operated in Germany. They were built between 1936 and 1937 by the firm of Henschel. After the first two engines entered service, a further 26 units were delivered in 1940. However, the third order for another 103 machines was cancelled in 1941, because the outbreak of the Second World War favoured the construction of simpler wartime locomotives, the so-called Kriegslokomotiven. The Class 45s were given the operating numbers 45 001 to 45 028.


One remains in preservation. 


The loco is in very good condition as you can see in the pictures, the loco is tested and runs with working lights, the overall condition is very good. It comes complete with its box. The box is in good if slightly shelf worn condition. 


Overall this is a really nice scale locomotive and would look fantastic on a layout.


Do please have a look at our other listings, we typically have various HO and OO locos on offer as well as an extensive range of imported N gauge locos and other items. 


Note: We do recommend all locos are cleaned & serviced, as they have some age to them even if the quality looks at the highest level (fairly standard advice for all locos!).
