Electric locomotive BR 101 "Design & Bahn"

For the first time at Märklin with a center motor and drive on all 4 axles

The DB Museum in Nuremberg will host the special exhibition "Design & Railway" from 01 October 2021. For the first time, an exhibition in Germany is dedicated to the history of design in railroads. Until June 12, 2022, the development of railroad design in Germany will be presented in 20 episodes - starting in the period around 1900.

To draw attention to the exhibition, the DB Museum and the Märklin company have come up with something very special. Together with industrial designer Gudrun Geiblinger, a special locomotive was created from the 101 003-02 electric locomotive in prototype and model. Dynamically curved brush strokes in red, blue and green pick up on the colors of the exhibition in the DB Museum. Both sides of the locomotive are designed differently.
