Cobi DR BR 52/TY2 Steam Locomotive

The set featuring a brick model of the German DR BR 52 steam locomotive / Ty2 from World War II is part of the completely new "Trains" collection offered by COBI. The construction made of building blocks accurately replicates the body, proportions, and details of the legendary steam engine. The 2-in-1 special edition includes up to two different sets of additional blocks, allowing you to build a model of the German locomotive DR BR 52 with German markings from World War II or a locomotive with Polish markings of the Polish State Railways from the World War II - post-war period of the People's Republic of Poland. In addition to various building blocks with different symbols, numbering, and markings, the set also includes modified, larger front and rear lights for the Polish design, selected bricks in different colors, and two different figures: a German train driver from the World War II era and a Polish train driver in the post-war PKP uniform featuring the characteristic state emblem - the Polish eagle without the royal crown removed by the communists.

The locomotive model is scaled at 1:35 and features details such as symbols, numbering, and inscriptions, as well as numerous "clock" prints in the locomotive's engine room. Thanks to the easily removable roof of the engine room, you can take a look at the accurately replicated devices that power the vehicle. Attention has also been paid to details such as the imitation of burning coal in the chimney.

As with a real steam locomotive, the entire wheel mechanism is coupled together so that it moves simultaneously. Inside the model, there are gears that form a complex mechanism, allowing for realistic movement of the wheels and the entire drive system.
