The locomotive is almost 70 centimeters long and is made of 2700 elements. The new large wheels intended for express locomotives immediately catch your attention. The steam locomotive has all the most important shapes of its original model reproduced. Interesting design features include: a reproduced driver's cabin with a firebox, throttle and other elements important for controlling the locomotive, as well as an opening smoke box. The locomotive comes with a block tender, necessary for driving a steam locomotive. The model has detailed prints showing the locomotive markings, Deutsche Reichsbahn and the necessary technical tables. In the Executive Edition version you get special figures: a driver in a classic railway uniform, a stationmaster with a belt and a red cap and a stoker with a bare torso and a simple railway forage cap with a shovel in his hand. Additionally, you get a block exhibition base, which shows a section of the track with an embankment and the name of the set and a water crane. The crane is necessary for continuous watering of the steam locomotive, which is why in the old days they were located at every railway station. Class 03 locomotives were built in the years 1930-1938 as express train locomotives on routes where the axle load was a maximum of 18 tons. 298 units of this locomotive, the design of which was based on the class 01 locomotive, were produced by Borsig, Krupp, Henschel and Schwartzkopff. Locomotives of this type pulled the most luxurious and prestigious express trains. They were also part of several special trains, including "Amerika". After the war, BR03 locomotives were sent to the Federal Republic of Germany, the German Democratic Republic and the Polish People's Republic.
