Product overview
AK35008 recreates the compact Breuer IV shunter in 1:35, pairing the locomotive with enough railway to form a self-contained display. Designed in Germany during the 1920s, the type was built both domestically and under licence elsewhere in Europe, and surviving examples reflect numerous wartime and post-war alterations. Optional components allow the model to follow several of those configurations rather than fixing it to one production state.
Includes over 150 injection-moulded plastic parts for the locomotive and track.
The 19 cm standard-gauge section can be arranged as straight or curved track.
One Deutsche Reichsbahn railway worker figure is supplied.
Cartograf decals cover 2 schemes: dark grey vehicle 25 and black-and-red vehicle 32.

An excellent kit for Diorama, and possibly for Operation
This is a very imaginative choice of shunting locomotive - about as small as is practical on Standard Gauge - which complements the 1/35 scale military rolling stock kits available without dominating the scene or taking up much space. Google will explain what it was and how it worked, and will find several examples of dioramas using this kit. It was an article about prototype and model in Gartenbahn magazine, Issue 6, Year 2024 that made me aware of it and prompted me to buy one immediately. The level of fine detail and the quality of the mouldings are excellent but, if you find some details just too fragile, you might want to beef them up. Motorising it would be a challenge, but could be done with an N20 type gearhead motor. Some modification (and new wheels) would be needed to run it on Gauge 1 track. Perhaps the simplest idea would be to couple the tiny shunter to a motorised goods wagon? Thank you AK :-) David
