The Piko 37202 G Scale DB III BR80 Steam Locomotive is a compact 0-6-0 switcher modeled after Deutsche Bundesbahn's post-war industrial fleet. Its bold black and red livery evokes the utilitarian charm of the 1950s, making it perfect for yard scenes, branch lines, or heritage layouts. Whether parked near a coaling station or actively shunting wagons, this locomotive brings authentic German railroading to life.

A factory-installed engineer figure adds character for close-up viewing or photography.
