New for 2025 is the BR 720 ČSD IV sound diesel locomotive. In the second half of the 1950s, the German Reichsbahn (DR) realized the urgent need to replace its aging class 80 steam locomotives. Since domestic manufacturers in the GDR were still testing their own V 60 locomotive at the time, the DR decided to order 20 units of the proven T 435.0 diesel locomotive from Czechoslovakia (ČSD), which was characterized by high reliability and robust construction. The locomotives were classified by the DR under the designation V 75 (later BR 720) and were mainly used for shunting service in Leipzig and the surrounding area. The model faithfully reproduces the characteristic details of the prototype, including the free-standing railing, fine engravings, and a detailed view of the cab. Digital functions allow for independently switchable cab lighting and registration plate lighting, providing an impressive experience on the model railway.
