BR 103 H0 Models – The Queen of DB Express Locomotives

Built from 1965 by Henschel/Krauss-Maffei/Krupp/Siemens, the BR 103 became the flagship of the Deutsche Bundesbahn as a 200 km/h express locomotive. 145 units hauled TEE trains and later Intercity and EuroCity services — from the "Rheingold" to the "Hispania-Express". With its distinctive "diadem" front, the trademark of DB express locomotives, it became an icon of German passenger services from Era IV to VI. Märklin/Trix, Roco, Piko and Brawa offer a very wide H0 range.
