Diesel locomotive 210 007 of the Deutsche Bundesbahn. ■ With prototypical roof in concrete grey ■ Available with PluX22 interface for the first time ■ Extra applied plug-in parts, partly executed in etching technology ■ Model with authentic low low wheel flanges ■ Sets of wheels with flanges within 1.2 mm available as spare parts (Items 145433 and 145435) ■ Headlights/tail lights switchable with a DIP switch To convert some series of the prevalent V-160 family, the DB ordered powerful AVCO Lycoming T53-L13 turbines from the former Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz works. From 1970, the turbines were mounted in the locomotives then designated as class 210. The locomotives with the running numbers 210 001-008 were put into service quickly on their intended regular rail routes. Their daily service included the express train "TEE Bavaria" and other heavy express trains running between the Bavarian capital Munich and Lindau.
