Oh Christmas Tree, ...
A great gift idea for Christmas: In the Fifties and Sixties steam locomotives with appropriate lettering often received their passengers at the station at Christmas or Easter. Now there are also Christmas greetings as high-quality model steam locomotive in a clear Acrylic display case. Road number 50 980 is a special eye catcher with its Christmas greetings and the lighted Christmas tree on the buffer beam. As a special highlight, the locomotive also whistles "Oh Christmas Tree, ...".

Prototype: German Federal Railroad (DB) class 50 freight steam locomotive, with a coal tender as the type 2´2´T26 standard design box-style tender as it originally looked. Witte smoke deflectors, standard cab, long running boards falling diagonally at the front by the smoke box, DB Reflex glass headlights, and inductive magnet on one side included. Road number 50 980. The locomotive looks as it did around 1960. Use of this locomotive with a Christmas tree and a Christmas design has not been confirmed.
