Heading to the Scrap Yard!! The Deutsche Reichsbahn's Class 52

Jean-Marie Bruggheman and his stunning work on the DRB Class 52 The Deutsche Reichsbahn's Class 52 is a German steam locomotive built in large numbers during the Second World War. It was the most produced type of the so-called Kriegslokomotiven or Kriegsloks (war locomotives). Class 52 was a wartime development of the pre-war DRG Class 50, using fewer parts and less expensive materials to speed production.

Adie Roberts continues his inspirations to help inspire modellers of all abilities to work out of their comfort zone building dioramas or just trying new builds. 

They were designed by Richard Wagner who was Chief Engineer of the Central Design Office at the Locomotive Standards Bureau of the DRG. About a dozen classes of locomotive were referred to as Kriegslokomotiven; however, the three main classes were Class 52, 50, and 42. They were numbered 52 1-52 7794. A total of 20 are preserved in Germany.
