American Diesel, LGB

The overwhelming majority of the LGB models are produced in G Scale which is 22.5 times smaller than the real life prototype. This number at first glance seems rather contrived, but it offers a critical advantage. Models of narrow gauge railways in this scale can be realized in a size that allows even small details to be reproduced in such a size that they have the necessary sturdiness even for real garden railway operations.

The first LGB diesel locomotives and cars were presented 40 years ago and since then the real life original has been the prototype for LGB models. Right from the start the emphasis was on authentic translation of the prototypes into G-scale diesel locomotive models. The reproduction of fine details is just as much a part of LGB G-scale diesel trains as working features are for play and fun. If nothing else, LGB diesel locomotives impress people with their size which is just one of many reasons this hobby is sure to impress!
