I don't know it mate but if it LGB the chances are its pretty good. When talking about LGB it is helpfull to mention a part number.

Does the "DB" stand for deutsch bahn? if so it is a pretty wide topic.

Does any one truly know what DB stands for I thought it was Deutsch Bahn but when I was over there I got the idea that this is now no longer true it might stand for Die Bahn?

Hi there,

I presume you're talking about LGB's 101 engine (Item# 20310)!?

It is a peculiar scale; in most parts approx. 1:27, however the wheels are 1:33.8, and the overall height is 1:23.5 Just imagine how tall it would be if the wheels were correct!
While it is clearly aimed at the toy market, there is very little that can be combined with the engine and still look right. LGB is planning on offering some cars to go with the engine.


BTW "DB" means Deutsche Bahn, it used to mean Deutsche Bundesbahn, the company itself is called Deutsche Bahn AG.

"die Bahn DB" is a smart advertising slogan, which I'm reasonably certain has more than one tourist confused. [;)][:)]

To confuse things a bit more, DB is also the acronym for Deutsche Bank.

That could be why I model the EBT. (East Broad Top RR)

Oh, wait! That also stands for "Electronic Benefits Transfer." Dang!

Hi Kevin, [;)][;)][:D]

Welllllllllllll you know.... being infected with the railroad virus at a very young age, when someone mentioned EBT for me it was always the Emmental-Burgdorf-Thun railway.[;)][;)]

But the East Broad Top is a neat proto, too. A bit oversized for the gauge in some respects, but other than that, A-OK.[;)][:)][:)]

I'll get with it and translate the complete review of that engine.

BTW the simple answer would be: It is a toy which looks similar to a BR101. The scale is "G" i.e. no fixed scale!!
