King Steam and the German Economic Wonder After the foundation of the Federal Republic, the young Federal Railways experienced an impressive flowering period during the economic miracle in the 1950s and 1960s. Although the development of modern diesel and electric locomotives began at that time, the steam flow could not be omitted for a long time. At the end of 1958, there were still around 9000 steam locomotives, which accounted for more than 60% of all engine kilometers. It was not only passenger transport that flourished, but freight transport on the rail also experienced an unexpected boom. Almost every city had freight handling, there were connecting tracks for freight customers everywhere, and even small, often remote railway stations could be reached as freight tariff points. Distance closures were hardly discussed at all.The maintenance-intensive steam towers were mostly entertained in three shifts in the numerous existing railway works at the time. In the Bavarian city of Bw Ansbach, where in 1961, 370 employees took care of 19 steam locomotives and 19 combustion engines. Even veterans from Bavarian state railways like the series 89.8 (Bavarian R 3/3) provided shunting service in the station and ran on the branch lines to Bechhofen and Windsbach. The powerful but slowe16 R 3/3 rarely went on the track, but rather served connections in the city area. However, from time to time they had to replace the fast-moving Pt 2/3 and then the service often started at 3.27 with the local freight train 8967 to Behhofen with a driving time of two hours for around 32 kilometers. At that time, such a journey consisted mostly of goods wagons of different types that had been rolled up in a colorful way. Back then we went with a passenger train from old two-axle coaches and the rest of the day the elderly Bavarian occupied himself with shunting and transfer trips. Until the beginning of the 1960s, such locomotives and trains were still steaming everyday life in the whole of Germany and a small but fine detail in the legendary economic wonder. The new MINITRIX set is thus a gem on every epoch-III system.Tender locomotive 89 826 (formerly Class R 3/3 of the K.Bay.Sts.B.) of the German Federal Railways (DB).
