Among the most esoteric train things are certainly the experimental Kriegslokomotiven, the ones that would have been there if the war had gone another way.
The 53 was proposed to us in the 70's by Märklin and had a moment of notoriety, being an articulated 2 C' D' 0 of considerable size.
This 59. 1 is practically unknown and is known only because a former employee (for obvious reasons I will not give his name) of the Reichanstalt fuer die Entwicklung Unwarscheinliche Dampflokomotive (we will often hear about this organization) in a moment of lucidity from the mystical crises caused by Alzheimer's and following an important visit to the local Gasthof Adler, spoke with Edemius Bratfuss who described to me the structure and put me on the trail of this important project.
6 axle motors with a diameter of 1,400 mm, three cylinders in single expansion and a remarkable Wannentender (tank tender) of 45 T on six axles.
The machine had to be built in strict economy, using most of the components of the 42, of which it had to use at least 90% of the parts.
In the 50's the DR (of the DDR) resumed the project, but it was set aside because Stalin mistakenly used it for some personal needs, then filing the disappearance with the usual state secret.
