Prototype: Class 141.R steam locomotive with an oil tender. Road number 1244 for mixed service, as it looked on the French State Railways (SNCF). The locomotive looks as it currently does in operational condition based at the Verein Mikado 1244 / Mikado Association 1244 in Brugg in Switzerland.
Model: The locomotive has an mfx+ digital decoder and extensive sound functions. It also has controlled high-efficiency propulsion with a flywheel, mounted in the boiler. Four axles powered, three of them using side rods. Traction tires. The locomotive and tender are constructed mostly of metal. There is a factory-installed smoke generator. The headlights and dual red marker lights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally. These lights can be switched to a red marker light. The cab lighting, running gear lights, and firebox / burner flickering can be controlled separately in digital operation. Maintenance-free warm white and red LEDs are used for the lighting. There is a close coupling with a mechanism between the locomotive and the tender. The tender has a close coupler with a guide mechanism in an NEM pocket. The buffer height on the locomotive and tender adheres to the NEM. The minimum radius for operation is 360 mm / 14-3/16". Piston rod sleeves and brake hoses are included. Length over the buffers approximately 27.9 cm / 11".
