DB Diesel Loco, 251 903-1
THE PROTOTYPE
To replace aging steam locomoti-
ves on their narrow gauge branch
lines, the German Railways (DB)
ordered five modern diesel-
hydraulic locomotives. Two 270
horsepower diesel engines are
mounted under the long front
hood, while the short hood conce-
als the air compressor, air reser-
voir and fuel tanks. These loco-
motives served their communities
in southwestern Germany until
their rail lines were abandoned.
Today, one operates on the
Rügenschen Kleinbahnen on the
Baltic island of Rügen.

We strongly recommend decoder

Hint: If this model is equipped
with a decoder, the digital/analog
DIP switches on the loco circuit
board will be set to OFF. On deco-

switches remain in this setting,
even if the models are used on an
analog layout.
Lighting
This model features directional
lighting. The model has „flat"
multi-purpose sockets, with a
removable covers, at the front and
rear of the loco. These sockets

sound electronics.
To remove the cover of the
socket, pull it straight out. If the
cover is tight, gently use a small
straight screwdriver to pry it out.
(Do not pull out the rectangular
outer housing.)
