Europe Diesel/Elec LGB

Locomotives
G Scale European Diesel and Electric Locomotives by 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 locomotives and cars were presented 40 years ago and since then the real life original has been the prototype for our LGB models. Right from the start the emphasis was on authentic translation of the prototypes into models. The reproduction of many details is just much a part of LGB as working features for play and fun. If nothing else LGB impresses people with its size which makes this adventure railroad so fascinating as a model too. This illusion becomes almost perfect when the trains run through the realistic nature of your own garden – and at any time of the year like the real life original.
